What value divided by 25 equals 90?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 25 and the quotient 90?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 25 × 90 = 2250
To prove this, let's compute 2250 divided by 25:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 25 gives a result of 90 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 25:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 25 and the quotient is 90, the dividend is 2250.
