What value divided by 30 equals 53?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 30 and the quotient 53?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 30 × 53 = 1590
To prove this, let's compute 1590 divided by 30:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 30 gives a result of 53 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 53, the dividend is 1590.
