What is x when 63 divided by x equals 33?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 63 and the quotient 33?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 63 ÷ 33 = 1.9090909090909

To prove this, let's compute 63 divided by 1.9090909090909: 63 1.9090909090909 = 33

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 63 divided by x gives a result of 33, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

63 x = 33

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 63 x x = 33 x
  2. 63 x x is equivalent to x x × 63 , which simplifies to 1 × 63 (or just 63 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 63 = 33 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 33: 63 33 = 33 x 33
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 1.9090909090909 = x (or x = 1.9090909090909 )

So, if the dividend is 63 and the quotient is 33, the divisor is 1.9090909090909.
