What value divided by 11 equals 27?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 11 and the quotient 27?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 11 × 27 = 297
To prove this, let's compute 297 divided by 11:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 11 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 11:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 11 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 297.
