What value divided by 3 equals 58?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 3 and the quotient 58?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 3 × 58 = 174

To prove this, let's compute 174 divided by 3: 174 3 = 58

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 3 gives a result of 58 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 3 = 58

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 3: 3 x 3 = 3 × 58
  2. 3 x 3 is equivalent to 3 3 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 3 × 58 = 174

So, if the divisor is 3 and the quotient is 58, the dividend is 174.
