What value divided by 38 equals 4?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 38 and the quotient 4?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 38 × 4 = 152
To prove this, let's compute 152 divided by 38:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 38 gives a result of 4 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 38:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 38 and the quotient is 4, the dividend is 152.
