It's easier to just cross multiply. So 132x=16. Then just solve for x. x = 16/132. Then simplify. x = 4/33.

132 = 16/x
132x = 16
x = 16/132
your way,
132/16 = 1/x
x = 16/132

132= 16/x
132x=16 ( multiply x for both sides)
x= 16/132 ( divide 16 for both sides)

132 = 16/x
132x = 16
16/132=x
x=.121212 continued

132/1=16/x
time x on both sides so
132x=16
x=16/132
=0.121212121212...

132= 16/x multiply both sides by x
132x=16 divide both sides by 132
x=16/132=4/33=.121212......
