What value divided by 20 equals 59?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 20 and the quotient 59?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 20 × 59 = 1180

To prove this, let's compute 1180 divided by 20: 1180 20 = 59

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 20 gives a result of 59 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 20 = 59

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 20: 20 x 20 = 20 × 59
  2. 20 x 20 is equivalent to 20 20 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 20 × 59 = 1180

So, if the divisor is 20 and the quotient is 59, the dividend is 1180.
