What value divided by 15 equals 55?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 55?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 55 = 825

To prove this, let's compute 825 divided by 15: 825 15 = 55

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 55 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 55

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 55
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 55 = 825

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 55, the dividend is 825.
