What is x when 32 divided by x equals 9?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 32 ÷ 9 = 3.5555555555556

To prove this, let's compute 32 divided by 3.5555555555556: $\frac{32}{3.5555555555556} = 9$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 32 divided by x gives a result of 9, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{32}{x} = 9$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{32 x}{x} = 9 x$
$\frac{32 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 32$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 32$ (or just $32$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $32 = 9 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 9: $\frac{32}{9} = \frac{9 x}{9}$
Which gives, after simplification: $3.5555555555556 = x$ (or $x = 3.5555555555556$ )

So, if the dividend is 32 and the quotient is 9, the divisor is 3.5555555555556.
