51 times what equals 37?

51 times what equals 37? In other words, what do you multiply by 51 to get 37? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "51 times what equals 37?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

51 • x = 37

Which can be written as:

51x = 37

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 51 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 51.

51x/51 = 37/51

51x/51 is x and 37/51 is 0.7255 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.7255

Thus, the answer to "51 times what equals 37?" is 0.7255.

To double-check our work, multiply 0.7255 by 51 to see that it equals 37. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
