What value divided by 36 equals 15?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 36 and the quotient 15?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 36 × 15 = 540

To prove this, let's compute 540 divided by 36: 540 36 = 15

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 36 gives a result of 15 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 36 = 15

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 36: 36 x 36 = 36 × 15
  2. 36 x 36 is equivalent to 36 36 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 36 × 15 = 540

So, if the divisor is 36 and the quotient is 15, the dividend is 540.
