85 times what equals 93?

85 times what equals 93? In other words, what do you multiply by 85 to get 93? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "85 times what equals 93?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

85 • x = 93

Which can be written as:

85x = 93

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 85 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 85.

85x/85 = 93/85

85x/85 is x and 93/85 is 1.0941 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 1.0941

Thus, the answer to "85 times what equals 93?" is 1.0941.

To double-check our work, multiply 1.0941 by 85 to see that it equals 93. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
