What value divided by 30 equals 60?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 30 and the quotient 60?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 30 × 60 = 1800
To prove this, let's compute 1800 divided by 30:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 30 gives a result of 60 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 60, the dividend is 1800.
