What value divided by 15 equals 60?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 60?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 60 = 900

To prove this, let's compute 900 divided by 15: 900 15 = 60

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 60 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 60

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 60
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 60 = 900

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 60, the dividend is 900.
