What value divided by 18 equals 56?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 18 and the quotient 56?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 18 × 56 = 1008

To prove this, let's compute 1008 divided by 18: 1008 18 = 56

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 18 gives a result of 56 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 18 = 56

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 18: 18 x 18 = 18 × 56
  2. 18 x 18 is equivalent to 18 18 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 18 × 56 = 1008

So, if the divisor is 18 and the quotient is 56, the dividend is 1008.
