What value divided by 23 equals 43?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 43?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 43 = 989

To prove this, let's compute 989 divided by 23: 989 23 = 43

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 43 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 43

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 43
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 43 = 989

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 43, the dividend is 989.
