What value divided by 12 equals 97?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 12 × 97 = 1164

To prove this, let's compute 1164 divided by 12: $\frac{1164}{12} = 97$

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 12 gives a result of 97 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{x}{12} = 97$

We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 12: $\frac{12 x}{12} = 12 \times 97$
$\frac{12 x}{12}$ is equivalent to $\frac{12}{12} x$ , which simplifies to $1 x$ (or just $x$ ).
Thus: $x = 12 \times 97 = 1164$

So, if the divisor is 12 and the quotient is 97, the dividend is 1164.
