What value divided by 24 equals 5?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 24 and the quotient 5?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 24 × 5 = 120

To prove this, let's compute 120 divided by 24: 120 24 = 5

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 24 gives a result of 5 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 24 = 5

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 24: 24 x 24 = 24 × 5
  2. 24 x 24 is equivalent to 24 24 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 24 × 5 = 120

So, if the divisor is 24 and the quotient is 5, the dividend is 120.
