What value divided by 15 equals 71?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 71?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 71 = 1065

To prove this, let's compute 1065 divided by 15: 1065 15 = 71

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 71 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 71

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 71
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 71 = 1065

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 71, the dividend is 1065.
