What value divided by 20 equals 83?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 20 and the quotient 83?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 20 × 83 = 1660

To prove this, let's compute 1660 divided by 20: 1660 20 = 83

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 20 gives a result of 83 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 20 = 83

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 20: 20 x 20 = 20 × 83
  2. 20 x 20 is equivalent to 20 20 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 20 × 83 = 1660

So, if the divisor is 20 and the quotient is 83, the dividend is 1660.
