What is x when 63 divided by x equals 27?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 63 ÷ 27 = 2.3333333333333

To prove this, let's compute 63 divided by 2.3333333333333: $\frac{63}{2.3333333333333} = 27$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 63 divided by x gives a result of 27, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{63}{x} = 27$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{63 x}{x} = 27 x$
$\frac{63 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 63$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 63$ (or just $63$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $63 = 27 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 27: $\frac{63}{27} = \frac{27 x}{27}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2.3333333333333 = x$ (or $x = 2.3333333333333$ )

So, if the dividend is 63 and the quotient is 27, the divisor is 2.3333333333333.
