What Divided By 7 Equals 33

Solving What Divided by 7 Equals 33

Here’s how you would set up this question as an equation:

$\frac{x}{7}=33$

The goal of the problem is to solve for $x$. To do this we need to change the equation so that $x$ is alone on one side of the equation. In this case, we can do that by multiplying both sides of the equation by $7$, resulting in this equation:

$x = 33 \times 7$

Then we simplify and find our answer:

$x = 231$

So, the answer to the question “What divided by $7$ equals $33$?” is $231$. To prove this, we can take the original problem:

$\frac{x}{7} = 33$

And insert $231$ in the place of $x$:

$\frac{231}{7} = 33$

Because this is true, the answer must be correct.
