What value divided by 23 equals 47?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 47?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 47 = 1081

To prove this, let's compute 1081 divided by 23: 1081 23 = 47

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 47 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 47

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 47
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 47 = 1081

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 47, the dividend is 1081.
