What value divided by 10 equals 48?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 10 and the quotient 48?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 10 × 48 = 480

To prove this, let's compute 480 divided by 10: 480 10 = 48

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 10 gives a result of 48 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 10 = 48

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 10: 10 x 10 = 10 × 48
  2. 10 x 10 is equivalent to 10 10 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 10 × 48 = 480

So, if the divisor is 10 and the quotient is 48, the dividend is 480.
