What value divided by 36 equals 5?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 36 and the quotient 5?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 36 × 5 = 180

To prove this, let's compute 180 divided by 36: 180 36 = 5

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 36 gives a result of 5 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 36 = 5

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 36: 36 x 36 = 36 × 5
  2. 36 x 36 is equivalent to 36 36 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 36 × 5 = 180

So, if the divisor is 36 and the quotient is 5, the dividend is 180.
