What is x when 10 divided by x equals 63?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 10 and the quotient 63?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 10 ÷ 63 = 0.15873015873016

To prove this, let's compute 10 divided by 0.15873015873016: 10 0.15873015873016 = 63

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 10 divided by x gives a result of 63, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

10 x = 63

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 10 x x = 63 x
  2. 10 x x is equivalent to x x × 10 , which simplifies to 1 × 10 (or just 10 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 10 = 63 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 63: 10 63 = 63 x 63
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.15873015873016 = x (or x = 0.15873015873016 )

So, if the dividend is 10 and the quotient is 63, the divisor is 0.15873015873016.
