Divide both sides of the equation by $3$ $3$

Explanation:

If $33 = 3 q$ $33 = 3q$
then
$XXX \frac{33}{3} = \frac{3 q}{3}$ $color(white)("XXX")33/3=(3q)/3$

$XXX 11 = q$ $color(white)("XXX")11=q$

or, in the more common sequence: (remember if $a = b$ $a=b$ then $b = a$ $b=a$ )
$XXX q = 11$ $color(white)("XXX")q=11$
