What value divided by 23 equals 26?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 26?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 26 = 598

To prove this, let's compute 598 divided by 23: 598 23 = 26

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 26 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 26

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 26
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 26 = 598

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 26, the dividend is 598.
