What value divided by 20 equals 71?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 20 and the quotient 71?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 20 × 71 = 1420

To prove this, let's compute 1420 divided by 20: 1420 20 = 71

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 20 gives a result of 71 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 20 = 71

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 20: 20 x 20 = 20 × 71
  2. 20 x 20 is equivalent to 20 20 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 20 × 71 = 1420

So, if the divisor is 20 and the quotient is 71, the dividend is 1420.
