If you are trying to find what that number is, the number would be -11.

-Just like simple multiplication, to find the missing factor in the equation

3 x __ = 33, you can divide 33/3. In this case, it equals 11. However, the 33 is a negative but the missing factor will still be the same causing it to be -11.
