What is x when 33 divided by x equals 59?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 33 ÷ 59 = 0.55932203389831

To prove this, let's compute 33 divided by 0.55932203389831: $\frac{33}{0.55932203389831} = 59$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 33 divided by x gives a result of 59, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{33}{x} = 59$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{33 x}{x} = 59 x$
$\frac{33 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 33$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 33$ (or just $33$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $33 = 59 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 59: $\frac{33}{59} = \frac{59 x}{59}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.55932203389831 = x$ (or $x = 0.55932203389831$ )

So, if the dividend is 33 and the quotient is 59, the divisor is 0.55932203389831.
