What is x when 32 divided by x equals 39?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 32 ÷ 39 = 0.82051282051282

To prove this, let's compute 32 divided by 0.82051282051282: $\frac{32}{0.82051282051282} = 39$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 32 divided by x gives a result of 39, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{32}{x} = 39$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{32 x}{x} = 39 x$
$\frac{32 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 32$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 32$ (or just $32$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $32 = 39 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 39: $\frac{32}{39} = \frac{39 x}{39}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.82051282051282 = x$ (or $x = 0.82051282051282$ )

So, if the dividend is 32 and the quotient is 39, the divisor is 0.82051282051282.
