Addressing the question: "What Divided by 83 Equals 18?" can seem daunting but it's merely a basic equation rearrangement problem. We can phrase it mathematically as: what real number, represented as x, when divided by 83, is equivalent to 18? We can write this equation in LaTex format for clarity:
\[ \frac{x}{83} = 18 \]Our key objective is to find the value of x. We can make x stand alone, solving the equation, by multiplying both sides by 83 to get:
\[ x = 18 \times 83 \]If you compute this, you will find that x equals 1494. Put x (1494) back into the original equation, you'll find that indeed, 1494 divided by 83 equals 18. If you want to practice more problems like these, consider the following scenarios:
