What value divided by 15 equals 20?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 20?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 20 = 300

To prove this, let's compute 300 divided by 15: 300 15 = 20

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 20 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 20

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 20
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 20 = 300

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 20, the dividend is 300.
