Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXESIncome tax expense for the quarter and year to date periods was computed in accordance with ASC 740-270 “Income Taxes - Interim Reporting.” Under this method, losses from jurisdictions for which a valuation allowance has been provided have not been included in the amount to which the ASC 740-270 rate was applied. The Company’s income tax expense may fluctuate due to changes in estimated losses and income from jurisdictions for which a valuation allowance has been provided, the timing of recognition of the related tax expense under ASC 740-270, and the impact of discrete items in the respective quarter.For the nine months ended July 31, 2023 and July 31, 2022, income tax expense was $107.9 million and $105.4 million, respectively. The $2.5 million net increase in income tax expense for the nine months ended July 31, 2023 was primarily attributable to $18.7 million increased tax expense associated with the Tama Divestiture, $3.5 million fewer benefits from releases of uncertain tax positions, and $4.5 million of miscellaneous other items, offset by $24.2 million reduced tax expense on lower pre-tax book income excluding business divestiture. Additionally, in 2022, a $58.6 million impairment was recorded for the FPS Divestiture and other businesses for which no tax benefit was recorded.
