What value divided by 26 equals 42?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 26 and the quotient 42?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 26 × 42 = 1092

To prove this, let's compute 1092 divided by 26: 1092 26 = 42

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 26 gives a result of 42 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 26 = 42

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 26: 26 x 26 = 26 × 42
  2. 26 x 26 is equivalent to 26 26 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 26 × 42 = 1092

So, if the divisor is 26 and the quotient is 42, the dividend is 1092.
