What is x when 52 divided by x equals 97?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 52 ÷ 97 = 0.5360824742268

To prove this, let's compute 52 divided by 0.5360824742268: $\frac{52}{0.5360824742268} = 97$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 52 divided by x gives a result of 97, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{52}{x} = 97$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{52 x}{x} = 97 x$
$\frac{52 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 52$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 52$ (or just $52$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $52 = 97 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 97: $\frac{52}{97} = \frac{97 x}{97}$
Which gives, after simplification: $0.5360824742268 = x$ (or $x = 0.5360824742268$ )

So, if the dividend is 52 and the quotient is 97, the divisor is 0.5360824742268.
