What is x when 93 divided by x equals 37?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 93 and the quotient 37?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 93 ÷ 37 = 2.5135135135135

To prove this, let's compute 93 divided by 2.5135135135135: 93 2.5135135135135 = 37

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 93 divided by x gives a result of 37, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

93 x = 37

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 93 x x = 37 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 = 37 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 37: 93 37 = 37 x 37
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 2.5135135135135 = x (or x = 2.5135135135135 )

So, if the dividend is 93 and the quotient is 37, the divisor is 2.5135135135135.
