What value divided by 23 equals 13?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 13?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 13 = 299

To prove this, let's compute 299 divided by 23: 299 23 = 13

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 13 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 13

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 13
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 13 = 299

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 13, the dividend is 299.
