What value divided by 14 equals 59?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 14 and the quotient 59?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 14 × 59 = 826
To prove this, let's compute 826 divided by 14:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 14 gives a result of 59 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 14:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 14 and the quotient is 59, the dividend is 826.
