What value divided by 10 equals 99?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 10 and the quotient 99?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 10 × 99 = 990

To prove this, let's compute 990 divided by 10: 990 10 = 99

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 10 gives a result of 99 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 10 = 99

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 10: 10 x 10 = 10 × 99
  2. 10 x 10 is equivalent to 10 10 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 10 × 99 = 990

So, if the divisor is 10 and the quotient is 99, the dividend is 990.
