What value divided by 19 equals 16?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 19 and the quotient 16?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 19 × 16 = 304
To prove this, let's compute 304 divided by 19:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 19 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 19:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 19 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 304.
