What is x when 33 divided by x equals 18?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 33 ÷ 18 = 1.8333333333333

To prove this, let's compute 33 divided by 1.8333333333333: $\frac{33}{1.8333333333333} = 18$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 33 divided by x gives a result of 18, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{33}{x} = 18$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{33 x}{x} = 18 x$
$\frac{33 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 33$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 33$ (or just $33$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $33 = 18 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 18: $\frac{33}{18} = \frac{18 x}{18}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.8333333333333 = x$ (or $x = 1.8333333333333$ )

So, if the dividend is 33 and the quotient is 18, the divisor is 1.8333333333333.
