    Solve for x

    I need to be able to solve for x. I know how to do it with a paper and pencil, but I have several thousand that I need to do and that will take too long. I have attached an example file as well, but basically I need excel to solve an equation like this...x/5=.8

    Thanks for the help!

    Never mind I solved it. I just have to divide the answer by 100 then multiply by the known number and I get the value for x.
