What value divided by 23 equals 38?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 38?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 38 = 874

To prove this, let's compute 874 divided by 23: 874 23 = 38

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 38 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 38

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 38
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 38 = 874

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 38, the dividend is 874.
