What value divided by 36 equals 16?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 36 and the quotient 16?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 36 × 16 = 576

To prove this, let's compute 576 divided by 36: 576 36 = 16

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 36 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 36 = 16

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 36: 36 x 36 = 36 × 16
  2. 36 x 36 is equivalent to 36 36 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 36 × 16 = 576

So, if the divisor is 36 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 576.
