What value divided by 10 equals 50?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 10 and the quotient 50?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 10 × 50 = 500

To prove this, let's compute 500 divided by 10: 500 10 = 50

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 10 gives a result of 50 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 10 = 50

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 10: 10 x 10 = 10 × 50
  2. 10 x 10 is equivalent to 10 10 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 10 × 50 = 500

So, if the divisor is 10 and the quotient is 50, the dividend is 500.
