What value divided by 18 equals 48?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 18 and the quotient 48?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 18 × 48 = 864

To prove this, let's compute 864 divided by 18: 864 18 = 48

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 18 gives a result of 48 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 18 = 48

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 18: 18 x 18 = 18 × 48
  2. 18 x 18 is equivalent to 18 18 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 18 × 48 = 864

So, if the divisor is 18 and the quotient is 48, the dividend is 864.
