What value divided by 31 equals 38?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 38?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 38 = 1178

To prove this, let's compute 1178 divided by 31: 1178 31 = 38

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 38 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 31 = 38

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31: 31 x 31 = 31 × 38
  2. 31 x 31 is equivalent to 31 31 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 31 × 38 = 1178

So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 38, the dividend is 1178.
