What is x when 56 divided by x equals 93?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 56 and the quotient 93?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 56 ÷ 93 = 0.60215053763441

To prove this, let's compute 56 divided by 0.60215053763441: 56 0.60215053763441 = 93

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 56 divided by x gives a result of 93, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

56 x = 93

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 56 x x = 93 x
  2. 56 x x is equivalent to x x × 56 , which simplifies to 1 × 56 (or just 56 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 56 = 93 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 93: 56 93 = 93 x 93
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.60215053763441 = x (or x = 0.60215053763441 )

So, if the dividend is 56 and the quotient is 93, the divisor is 0.60215053763441.
