What value divided by 12 equals 75?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 12 and the quotient 75?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 12 × 75 = 900

To prove this, let's compute 900 divided by 12: 900 12 = 75

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 12 gives a result of 75 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 12 = 75

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 12: 12 x 12 = 12 × 75
  2. 12 x 12 is equivalent to 12 12 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 12 × 75 = 900

So, if the divisor is 12 and the quotient is 75, the dividend is 900.
