What value divided by 18 equals 5?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 18 and the quotient 5?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 18 × 5 = 90

To prove this, let's compute 90 divided by 18: 90 18 = 5

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 18 gives a result of 5 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 18 = 5

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 18: 18 x 18 = 18 × 5
  2. 18 x 18 is equivalent to 18 18 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 18 × 5 = 90

So, if the divisor is 18 and the quotient is 5, the dividend is 90.
