What value divided by 19 equals 20?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 19 and the quotient 20?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 19 × 20 = 380
To prove this, let's compute 380 divided by 19:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 19 gives a result of 20 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 20, the dividend is 380.
