What value divided by 20 equals 8?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 20 and the quotient 8?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 20 × 8 = 160

To prove this, let's compute 160 divided by 20: 160 20 = 8

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 20 gives a result of 8 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 20 = 8

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 20: 20 x 20 = 20 × 8
  2. 20 x 20 is equivalent to 20 20 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 20 × 8 = 160

So, if the divisor is 20 and the quotient is 8, the dividend is 160.
