What value divided by 23 equals 3?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 3?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 3 = 69

To prove this, let's compute 69 divided by 23: 69 23 = 3

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 3 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 3

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 3
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 3 = 69

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 3, the dividend is 69.
