When you have problems like this you simply ask yourself what number do I have to multiply by 23 to get 6? This is how you might read this mathematical expression. So how do we solve the problem?

Well if x is the number that we have to multiply by 23 to get 6 that means that if we divide 6, 26 times we get x. So, x would be 6/23.
