What value divided by 20 equals 56?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 20 and the quotient 56?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 20 × 56 = 1120

To prove this, let's compute 1120 divided by 20: 1120 20 = 56

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 20 gives a result of 56 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 20 = 56

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 20: 20 x 20 = 20 × 56
  2. 20 x 20 is equivalent to 20 20 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 20 × 56 = 1120

So, if the divisor is 20 and the quotient is 56, the dividend is 1120.
