What value divided by 12 equals 73?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 12 and the quotient 73?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 12 × 73 = 876

To prove this, let's compute 876 divided by 12: 876 12 = 73

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 12 gives a result of 73 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 12 = 73

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 12: 12 x 12 = 12 × 73
  2. 12 x 12 is equivalent to 12 12 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 12 × 73 = 876

So, if the divisor is 12 and the quotient is 73, the dividend is 876.
