What value divided by 34 equals 16?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 34 and the quotient 16?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 34 × 16 = 544
To prove this, let's compute 544 divided by 34:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 34 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 34:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 34 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 544.
