What value divided by 20 equals 77?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 20 and the quotient 77?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 20 × 77 = 1540

To prove this, let's compute 1540 divided by 20: 1540 20 = 77

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 20 gives a result of 77 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 20 = 77

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 20: 20 x 20 = 20 × 77
  2. 20 x 20 is equivalent to 20 20 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 20 × 77 = 1540

So, if the divisor is 20 and the quotient is 77, the dividend is 1540.
