What value divided by 23 equals 54?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 54?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 54 = 1242

To prove this, let's compute 1242 divided by 23: 1242 23 = 54

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 54 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 54

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 54
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 54 = 1242

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 54, the dividend is 1242.
