What value divided by 23 equals 97?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 23 and the quotient 97?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 23 × 97 = 2231

To prove this, let's compute 2231 divided by 23: 2231 23 = 97

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 23 gives a result of 97 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 23 = 97

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 23: 23 x 23 = 23 × 97
  2. 23 x 23 is equivalent to 23 23 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 23 × 97 = 2231

So, if the divisor is 23 and the quotient is 97, the dividend is 2231.
