What value divided by 11 equals 72?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 11 × 72 = 792

To prove this, let's compute 792 divided by 11: $\frac{792}{11} = 72$

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 11 gives a result of 72 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{x}{11} = 72$

We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 11: $\frac{11 x}{11} = 11 \times 72$
$\frac{11 x}{11}$ is equivalent to $\frac{11}{11} x$ , which simplifies to $1 x$ (or just $x$ ).
Thus: $x = 11 \times 72 = 792$

So, if the divisor is 11 and the quotient is 72, the dividend is 792.
