What value divided by 31 equals 45?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 45?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 45 = 1395
To prove this, let's compute 1395 divided by 31:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 45 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 45, the dividend is 1395.
