What is x when 93 divided by x equals 35?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 93 and the quotient 35?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 93 ÷ 35 = 2.6571428571429

To prove this, let's compute 93 divided by 2.6571428571429: 93 2.6571428571429 = 35

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 93 divided by x gives a result of 35, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

93 x = 35

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 93 x x = 35 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 = 35 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 35: 93 35 = 35 x 35
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.6571428571429 = x (or x = 2.6571428571429 )

So, if the dividend is 93 and the quotient is 35, the divisor is 2.6571428571429.
