What is x when 83 divided by x equals 19?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 83 ÷ 19 = 4.3684210526316

To prove this, let's compute 83 divided by 4.3684210526316: $\frac{83}{4.3684210526316} = 19$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 83 divided by x gives a result of 19, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{83}{x} = 19$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{83 x}{x} = 19 x$
$\frac{83 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 83$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 83$ (or just $83$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $83 = 19 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 19: $\frac{83}{19} = \frac{19 x}{19}$
Which gives, after simplification: $4.3684210526316 = x$ (or $x = 4.3684210526316$ )

So, if the dividend is 83 and the quotient is 19, the divisor is 4.3684210526316.
