What is x when 41 divided by x equals 27?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 41 ÷ 27 = 1.5185185185185

To prove this, let's compute 41 divided by 1.5185185185185: $\frac{41}{1.5185185185185} = 27$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 41 divided by x gives a result of 27, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{41}{x} = 27$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{41 x}{x} = 27 x$
$\frac{41 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 41$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 41$ (or just $41$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $41 = 27 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 27: $\frac{41}{27} = \frac{27 x}{27}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.5185185185185 = x$ (or $x = 1.5185185185185$ )

So, if the dividend is 41 and the quotient is 27, the divisor is 1.5185185185185.
