What value divided by 18 equals 15?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 18 and the quotient 15?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 18 × 15 = 270

To prove this, let's compute 270 divided by 18: 270 18 = 15

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 18 gives a result of 15 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 18 = 15

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 18: 18 x 18 = 18 × 15
  2. 18 x 18 is equivalent to 18 18 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 18 × 15 = 270

So, if the divisor is 18 and the quotient is 15, the dividend is 270.
