53 times what equals 11?

53 times what equals 11? In other words, what do you multiply by 53 to get 11? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "53 times what equals 11?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

53 • x = 11

Which can be written as:

53x = 11

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 53 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 53.

53x/53 = 11/53

53x/53 is x and 11/53 is 0.2075 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 0.2075

Thus, the answer to "53 times what equals 11?" is 0.2075.

To double-check our work, multiply 0.2075 by 53 to see that it equals 11. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
