What value divided by 16 equals 78?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 16 and the quotient 78?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 16 × 78 = 1248

To prove this, let's compute 1248 divided by 16: 1248 16 = 78

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 16 gives a result of 78 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 16 = 78

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 16: 16 x 16 = 16 × 78
  2. 16 x 16 is equivalent to 16 16 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 16 × 78 = 1248

So, if the divisor is 16 and the quotient is 78, the dividend is 1248.
