What value divided by 31 equals 78?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 78?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 78 = 2418

To prove this, let's compute 2418 divided by 31: 2418 31 = 78

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 78 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 31 = 78

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31: 31 x 31 = 31 × 78
  2. 31 x 31 is equivalent to 31 31 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 31 × 78 = 2418

So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 78, the dividend is 2418.
