What value divided by 100 equals 20?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 100 and the quotient 20?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 100 × 20 = 2000

To prove this, let's compute 2000 divided by 100: 2000 100 = 20

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 100 gives a result of 20 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 100 = 20

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 100: 100 x 100 = 100 × 20
  2. 100 x 100 is equivalent to 100 100 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 100 × 20 = 2000

So, if the divisor is 100 and the quotient is 20, the dividend is 2000.
