What is x when 41 divided by x equals 51?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 41 ÷ 51 = 0.80392156862745

To prove this, let's compute 41 divided by 0.80392156862745: $\frac{41}{0.80392156862745} = 51$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 41 divided by x gives a result of 51, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{41}{x} = 51$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{41 x}{x} = 51 x$
$\frac{41 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 41$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 41$ (or just $41$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $41 = 51 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 51: $\frac{41}{51} = \frac{51 x}{51}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.80392156862745 = x$ (or $x = 0.80392156862745$ )

So, if the dividend is 41 and the quotient is 51, the divisor is 0.80392156862745.
