What value divided by 21 equals 59?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 21 and the quotient 59?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 21 × 59 = 1239

To prove this, let's compute 1239 divided by 21: 1239 21 = 59

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 21 gives a result of 59 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 21 = 59

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 21: 21 x 21 = 21 × 59
  2. 21 x 21 is equivalent to 21 21 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 21 × 59 = 1239

So, if the divisor is 21 and the quotient is 59, the dividend is 1239.
