What value divided by 22 equals 21?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 22 and the quotient 21?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 22 × 21 = 462

To prove this, let's compute 462 divided by 22: 462 22 = 21

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 22 gives a result of 21 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 22 = 21

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 22: 22 x 22 = 22 × 21
  2. 22 x 22 is equivalent to 22 22 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 22 × 21 = 462

So, if the divisor is 22 and the quotient is 21, the dividend is 462.
