What value divided by 21 equals 57?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 21 and the quotient 57?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 21 × 57 = 1197

To prove this, let's compute 1197 divided by 21: 1197 21 = 57

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 21 gives a result of 57 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 21 = 57

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 21: 21 x 21 = 21 × 57
  2. 21 x 21 is equivalent to 21 21 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 21 × 57 = 1197

So, if the divisor is 21 and the quotient is 57, the dividend is 1197.
