52 times what equals 7?

52 times what equals 7? In other words, what do you multiply by 52 to get 7? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "52 times what equals 7?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

52 • x = 7

Which can be written as:

52x = 7

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 52 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 52.

52x/52 = 7/52

52x/52 is x and 7/52 is 0.1346 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.1346

Thus, the answer to "52 times what equals 7?" is 0.1346.

To double-check our work, multiply 0.1346 by 52 to see that it equals 7. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
