What is x when 93 divided by x equals 33?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 93 and the quotient 33?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 93 ÷ 33 = 2.8181818181818

To prove this, let's compute 93 divided by 2.8181818181818: 93 2.8181818181818 = 33

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 93 divided by x gives a result of 33, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

93 x = 33

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 93 x x = 33 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 = 33 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 33: 93 33 = 33 x 33
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.8181818181818 = x (or x = 2.8181818181818 )

So, if the dividend is 93 and the quotient is 33, the divisor is 2.8181818181818.
