What is x when 92 divided by x equals 85?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 92 ÷ 85 = 1.0823529411765

To prove this, let's compute 92 divided by 1.0823529411765: $\frac{92}{1.0823529411765} = 85$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 92 divided by x gives a result of 85, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{92}{x} = 85$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{92 x}{x} = 85 x$
$\frac{92 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 92$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 92$ (or just $92$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $92 = 85 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 85: $\frac{92}{85} = \frac{85 x}{85}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.0823529411765 = x$ (or $x = 1.0823529411765$ )

So, if the dividend is 92 and the quotient is 85, the divisor is 1.0823529411765.
