What value divided by 39 equals 10?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 39 and the quotient 10?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 39 × 10 = 390
To prove this, let's compute 390 divided by 39:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 39 gives a result of 10 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 39:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 39 and the quotient is 10, the dividend is 390.
