What is x when 33 divided by x equals 67?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 33 and the quotient 67?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 33 ÷ 67 = 0.49253731343284

To prove this, let's compute 33 divided by 0.49253731343284: 33 0.49253731343284 = 67

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 33 divided by x gives a result of 67, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

33 x = 67

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 33 x x = 67 x
  2. 33 x x is equivalent to x x × 33 , which simplifies to 1 × 33 (or just 33 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 33 = 67 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 67: 33 67 = 67 x 67
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.49253731343284 = x (or x = 0.49253731343284 )

So, if the dividend is 33 and the quotient is 67, the divisor is 0.49253731343284.
