What value divided by 19 equals 72?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 19 and the quotient 72?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 19 × 72 = 1368

To prove this, let's compute 1368 divided by 19: 1368 19 = 72

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 19 gives a result of 72 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 19 = 72

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 19: 19 x 19 = 19 × 72
  2. 19 x 19 is equivalent to 19 19 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 19 × 72 = 1368

So, if the divisor is 19 and the quotient is 72, the dividend is 1368.
