What value divided by 30 equals 51?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 30 and the quotient 51?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 30 × 51 = 1530
To prove this, let's compute 1530 divided by 30:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 30 gives a result of 51 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 30:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 30 and the quotient is 51, the dividend is 1530.
