What value divided by 16 equals 81?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 16 and the quotient 81?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 16 × 81 = 1296

To prove this, let's compute 1296 divided by 16: 1296 16 = 81

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 16 gives a result of 81 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 16 = 81

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 16: 16 x 16 = 16 × 81
  2. 16 x 16 is equivalent to 16 16 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 16 × 81 = 1296

So, if the divisor is 16 and the quotient is 81, the dividend is 1296.
