What value divided by 23 equals 78?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 78?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 78 = 1794

To prove this, let's compute 1794 divided by 23: 1794 23 = 78

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 78 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 78

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 78
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 78 = 1794

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 78, the dividend is 1794.
