What value divided by 19 equals 7?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 19 and the quotient 7?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 19 × 7 = 133
To prove this, let's compute 133 divided by 19:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 19 gives a result of 7 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 7, the dividend is 133.
