What value divided by 12 equals 43?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 12 and the quotient 43?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 12 × 43 = 516

To prove this, let's compute 516 divided by 12: 516 12 = 43

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 12 gives a result of 43 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 12 = 43

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 12: 12 x 12 = 12 × 43
  2. 12 x 12 is equivalent to 12 12 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 12 × 43 = 516

So, if the divisor is 12 and the quotient is 43, the dividend is 516.
