What value divided by 15 equals 23?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 23?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 23 = 345

To prove this, let's compute 345 divided by 15: 345 15 = 23

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 23 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 23

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 23
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 23 = 345

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 23, the dividend is 345.
