What value divided by 33 equals 31?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 33 and the quotient 31?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 33 × 31 = 1023
To prove this, let's compute 1023 divided by 33:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 33 gives a result of 31 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 31, the dividend is 1023.
