What value divided by 10 equals 68?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 10 and the quotient 68?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 10 × 68 = 680
To prove this, let's compute 680 divided by 10:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 10 gives a result of 68 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 10:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 10 and the quotient is 68, the dividend is 680.
