What is x when 58 divided by x equals 93?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 58 and the quotient 93?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 58 ÷ 93 = 0.62365591397849

To prove this, let's compute 58 divided by 0.62365591397849: 58 0.62365591397849 = 93

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 58 divided by x gives a result of 93, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

58 x = 93

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 58 x x = 93 x
  2. 58 x x is equivalent to x x × 58 , which simplifies to 1 × 58 (or just 58 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 58 = 93 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 93: 58 93 = 93 x 93
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.62365591397849 = x (or x = 0.62365591397849 )

So, if the dividend is 58 and the quotient is 93, the divisor is 0.62365591397849.
