What value divided by 100 equals 12?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 100 and the quotient 12?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 100 × 12 = 1200

To prove this, let's compute 1200 divided by 100: 1200 100 = 12

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 100 gives a result of 12 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 100 = 12

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 100: 100 x 100 = 100 × 12
  2. 100 x 100 is equivalent to 100 100 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 100 × 12 = 1200

So, if the divisor is 100 and the quotient is 12, the dividend is 1200.
