What value divided by 18 equals 54?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 18 and the quotient 54?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 18 × 54 = 972

To prove this, let's compute 972 divided by 18: 972 18 = 54

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 18 gives a result of 54 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 18 = 54

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 18: 18 x 18 = 18 × 54
  2. 18 x 18 is equivalent to 18 18 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 18 × 54 = 972

So, if the divisor is 18 and the quotient is 54, the dividend is 972.
