What is x when 91 divided by x equals 33?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 91 and the quotient 33?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 91 ÷ 33 = 2.7575757575758

To prove this, let's compute 91 divided by 2.7575757575758: 91 2.7575757575758 = 33

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 91 divided by x gives a result of 33, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

91 x = 33

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 91 x x = 33 x
  2. 91 x x is equivalent to x x × 91 , which simplifies to 1 × 91 (or just 91 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 91 = 33 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 33: 91 33 = 33 x 33
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.7575757575758 = x (or x = 2.7575757575758 )

So, if the dividend is 91 and the quotient is 33, the divisor is 2.7575757575758.
