What value divided by 30 equals 16?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 30 and the quotient 16?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 30 × 16 = 480

To prove this, let's compute 480 divided by 30: 480 30 = 16

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 30 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 30 = 16

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 30: 30 x 30 = 30 × 16
  2. 30 x 30 is equivalent to 30 30 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 30 × 16 = 480

So, if the divisor is 30 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 480.
