What value divided by 31 equals 53?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 53?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 53 = 1643

To prove this, let's compute 1643 divided by 31: 1643 31 = 53

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 53 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 31 = 53

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31: 31 x 31 = 31 × 53
  2. 31 x 31 is equivalent to 31 31 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 31 × 53 = 1643

So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 53, the dividend is 1643.
