What is x when 66 divided by x equals 51?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 66 ÷ 51 = 1.2941176470588

To prove this, let's compute 66 divided by 1.2941176470588: $\frac{66}{1.2941176470588} = 51$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 66 divided by x gives a result of 51, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{66}{x} = 51$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{66 x}{x} = 51 x$
$\frac{66 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 66$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 66$ (or just $66$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $66 = 51 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 51: $\frac{66}{51} = \frac{51 x}{51}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.2941176470588 = x$ (or $x = 1.2941176470588$ )

So, if the dividend is 66 and the quotient is 51, the divisor is 1.2941176470588.
