What value divided by 33 equals 16?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 33 and the quotient 16?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 33 × 16 = 528
To prove this, let's compute 528 divided by 33:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 33 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 33:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 33 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 528.
