What value divided by 21 equals 53?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 21 and the quotient 53?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 21 × 53 = 1113

To prove this, let's compute 1113 divided by 21: 1113 21 = 53

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 21 gives a result of 53 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 21 = 53

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 21: 21 x 21 = 21 × 53
  2. 21 x 21 is equivalent to 21 21 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 21 × 53 = 1113

So, if the divisor is 21 and the quotient is 53, the dividend is 1113.
