What value divided by 15 equals 100?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 100?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 100 = 1500

To prove this, let's compute 1500 divided by 15: 1500 15 = 100

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 100 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 100

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 100
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 100 = 1500

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 100, the dividend is 1500.
