What value divided by 31 equals 47?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 47?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 47 = 1457

To prove this, let's compute 1457 divided by 31: 1457 31 = 47

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 47 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 31 = 47

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31: 31 x 31 = 31 × 47
  2. 31 x 31 is equivalent to 31 31 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 31 × 47 = 1457

So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 47, the dividend is 1457.
