What value divided by 16 equals 12?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 16 and the quotient 12?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 16 × 12 = 192

To prove this, let's compute 192 divided by 16: 192 16 = 12

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 16 gives a result of 12 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 16 = 12

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 16: 16 x 16 = 16 × 12
  2. 16 x 16 is equivalent to 16 16 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 16 × 12 = 192

So, if the divisor is 16 and the quotient is 12, the dividend is 192.
