What is x when 51 divided by x equals 33?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 51 ÷ 33 = 1.5454545454545

To prove this, let's compute 51 divided by 1.5454545454545: $\frac{51}{1.5454545454545} = 33$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 51 divided by x gives a result of 33, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{51}{x} = 33$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{51 x}{x} = 33 x$
$\frac{51 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 51$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 51$ (or just $51$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $51 = 33 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 33: $\frac{51}{33} = \frac{33 x}{33}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.5454545454545 = x$ (or $x = 1.5454545454545$ )

So, if the dividend is 51 and the quotient is 33, the divisor is 1.5454545454545.
