What value divided by 16 equals 79?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 16 and the quotient 79?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 16 × 79 = 1264

To prove this, let's compute 1264 divided by 16: 1264 16 = 79

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 16 gives a result of 79 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 16 = 79

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 16: 16 x 16 = 16 × 79
  2. 16 x 16 is equivalent to 16 16 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 16 × 79 = 1264

So, if the divisor is 16 and the quotient is 79, the dividend is 1264.
