What value divided by 16 equals 53?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 16 and the quotient 53?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 16 × 53 = 848

To prove this, let's compute 848 divided by 16: 848 16 = 53

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 16 gives a result of 53 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 16 = 53

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 16: 16 x 16 = 16 × 53
  2. 16 x 16 is equivalent to 16 16 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 16 × 53 = 848

So, if the divisor is 16 and the quotient is 53, the dividend is 848.
