What value divided by 34 equals 72?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 34 and the quotient 72?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 34 × 72 = 2448

To prove this, let's compute 2448 divided by 34: 2448 34 = 72

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 34 gives a result of 72 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 34 = 72

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 34: 34 x 34 = 34 × 72
  2. 34 x 34 is equivalent to 34 34 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 34 × 72 = 2448

So, if the divisor is 34 and the quotient is 72, the dividend is 2448.
