What value divided by 11 equals 9?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 11 and the quotient 9?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 11 × 9 = 99
To prove this, let's compute 99 divided by 11:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 11 gives a result of 9 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 9, the dividend is 99.
