What is x when 47 divided by x equals 22?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 47 ÷ 22 = 2.1363636363636

To prove this, let's compute 47 divided by 2.1363636363636: $\frac{47}{2.1363636363636} = 22$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 47 divided by x gives a result of 22, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{47}{x} = 22$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{47 x}{x} = 22 x$
$\frac{47 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 47$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 47$ (or just $47$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $47 = 22 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 22: $\frac{47}{22} = \frac{22 x}{22}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2.1363636363636 = x$ (or $x = 2.1363636363636$ )

So, if the dividend is 47 and the quotient is 22, the divisor is 2.1363636363636.
