What value divided by 16 equals 71?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 16 and the quotient 71?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 16 × 71 = 1136

To prove this, let's compute 1136 divided by 16: 1136 16 = 71

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 16 gives a result of 71 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 16 = 71

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 16: 16 x 16 = 16 × 71
  2. 16 x 16 is equivalent to 16 16 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 16 × 71 = 1136

So, if the divisor is 16 and the quotient is 71, the dividend is 1136.
