What is x when 81 divided by x equals 93?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 81 and the quotient 93?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 81 ÷ 93 = 0.87096774193548

To prove this, let's compute 81 divided by 0.87096774193548: 81 0.87096774193548 = 93

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 81 divided by x gives a result of 93, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

81 x = 93

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 81 x x = 93 x
  2. 81 x x is equivalent to x x × 81 , which simplifies to 1 × 81 (or just 81 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 81 = 93 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 93: 81 93 = 93 x 93
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.87096774193548 = x (or x = 0.87096774193548 )

So, if the dividend is 81 and the quotient is 93, the divisor is 0.87096774193548.
