What is x when 93 divided by x equals 99?

In other words, what would the divisor be if the dividend were 93 and the quotient 99?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 93 ÷ 99 = 0.93939393939394

To prove this, let's compute 93 divided by 0.93939393939394: 93 0.93939393939394 = 99

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 93 divided by x gives a result of 99, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

93 x = 99

  1. Multiply both sides by x: 93 x x = 99 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 = 99 x
  4. To find x, divide both sides by 99: 93 99 = 99 x 99
  5. Which gives, after simplification: 0.93939393939394 = x (or x = 0.93939393939394 )

So, if the dividend is 93 and the quotient is 99, the divisor is 0.93939393939394.
