What value divided by 36 equals 55?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 36 and the quotient 55?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 36 × 55 = 1980

To prove this, let's compute 1980 divided by 36: 1980 36 = 55

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 36 gives a result of 55 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 36 = 55

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 36: 36 x 36 = 36 × 55
  2. 36 x 36 is equivalent to 36 36 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 36 × 55 = 1980

So, if the divisor is 36 and the quotient is 55, the dividend is 1980.
