What is x when 33 divided by x equals 32?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 33 ÷ 32 = 1.03125

To prove this, let's compute 33 divided by 1.03125: $\frac{33}{1.03125} = 32$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 33 divided by x gives a result of 32, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{33}{x} = 32$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{33 x}{x} = 32 x$
$\frac{33 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 33$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 33$ (or just $33$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $33 = 32 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 32: $\frac{33}{32} = \frac{32 x}{32}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.03125 = x$ (or $x = 1.03125$ )

So, if the dividend is 33 and the quotient is 32, the divisor is 1.03125.
