What value divided by 15 equals 39?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 39?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 39 = 585

To prove this, let's compute 585 divided by 15: 585 15 = 39

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 39 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 39

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 39
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 39 = 585

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 39, the dividend is 585.
