What is x when 51 divided by x equals 43?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 51 ÷ 43 = 1.1860465116279

To prove this, let's compute 51 divided by 1.1860465116279: $\frac{51}{1.1860465116279} = 43$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 51 divided by x gives a result of 43, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{51}{x} = 43$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{51 x}{x} = 43 x$
$\frac{51 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 51$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 51$ (or just $51$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $51 = 43 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 43: $\frac{51}{43} = \frac{43 x}{43}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.1860465116279 = x$ (or $x = 1.1860465116279$ )

So, if the dividend is 51 and the quotient is 43, the divisor is 1.1860465116279.
