What is x when 93 divided by x equals 10?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 93 and the quotient 10?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 93 ÷ 10 = 9.3

To prove this, let's compute 93 divided by 9.3: 93 9.3 = 10

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 93 divided by x gives a result of 10, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

93 x = 10

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 93 x x = 10 x
  2. 93 x x is equivalent to x x × 93 , which simplifies to 1 × 93 (or just 93 ).
  3. Thus, the equation becomes: 93 = 10 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 10: 93 10 = 10 x 10
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 9.3 = x (or x = 9.3 )

So, if the dividend is 93 and the quotient is 10, the divisor is 9.3.
