What value divided by 18 equals 12?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 18 and the quotient 12?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 18 × 12 = 216

To prove this, let's compute 216 divided by 18: 216 18 = 12

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 18 gives a result of 12 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 18 = 12

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 18: 18 x 18 = 18 × 12
  2. 18 x 18 is equivalent to 18 18 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 18 × 12 = 216

So, if the divisor is 18 and the quotient is 12, the dividend is 216.
