What value divided by 31 equals 12?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 12?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 12 = 372

To prove this, let's compute 372 divided by 31: 372 31 = 12

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 12 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 31 = 12

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31: 31 x 31 = 31 × 12
  2. 31 x 31 is equivalent to 31 31 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 31 × 12 = 372

So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 12, the dividend is 372.
