What value divided by 13 equals 26?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 13 and the quotient 26?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 13 × 26 = 338
To prove this, let's compute 338 divided by 13:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 13 gives a result of 26 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 13:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 13 and the quotient is 26, the dividend is 338.
