What is x when 47 divided by x equals 11?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 47 ÷ 11 = 4.2727272727273

To prove this, let's compute 47 divided by 4.2727272727273: $\frac{47}{4.2727272727273} = 11$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 47 divided by x gives a result of 11, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{47}{x} = 11$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{47 x}{x} = 11 x$
$\frac{47 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 47$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 47$ (or just $47$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $47 = 11 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 11: $\frac{47}{11} = \frac{11 x}{11}$
Which gives, after simplification: $4.2727272727273 = x$ (or $x = 4.2727272727273$ )

So, if the dividend is 47 and the quotient is 11, the divisor is 4.2727272727273.
