What value divided by 12 equals 8?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 12 and the quotient 8?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 12 × 8 = 96

To prove this, let's compute 96 divided by 12: 96 12 = 8

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 12 gives a result of 8 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 12 = 8

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 12: 12 x 12 = 12 × 8
  2. 12 x 12 is equivalent to 12 12 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 12 × 8 = 96

So, if the divisor is 12 and the quotient is 8, the dividend is 96.
