What value divided by 32 equals 38?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 32 and the quotient 38?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 32 × 38 = 1216
To prove this, let's compute 1216 divided by 32:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 32 gives a result of 38 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 32:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 32 and the quotient is 38, the dividend is 1216.
