What value divided by 15 equals 31?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 31?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 31 = 465

To prove this, let's compute 465 divided by 15: 465 15 = 31

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 31 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 31

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 31
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 31 = 465

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 31, the dividend is 465.
