What value divided by 31 equals 56?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 56?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 56 = 1736

To prove this, let's compute 1736 divided by 31: 1736 31 = 56

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 56 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 31 = 56

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31: 31 x 31 = 31 × 56
  2. 31 x 31 is equivalent to 31 31 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 31 × 56 = 1736

So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 56, the dividend is 1736.
