What is x when 32 divided by x equals 21?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 32 ÷ 21 = 1.5238095238095

To prove this, let's compute 32 divided by 1.5238095238095: $\frac{32}{1.5238095238095} = 21$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 32 divided by x gives a result of 21, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{32}{x} = 21$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{32 x}{x} = 21 x$
$\frac{32 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 32$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 32$ (or just $32$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $32 = 21 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 21: $\frac{32}{21} = \frac{21 x}{21}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.5238095238095 = x$ (or $x = 1.5238095238095$ )

So, if the dividend is 32 and the quotient is 21, the divisor is 1.5238095238095.
