What value divided by 39 equals 12?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 39 and the quotient 12?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 39 × 12 = 468

To prove this, let's compute 468 divided by 39: 468 39 = 12

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 39 gives a result of 12 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 39 = 12

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 39: 39 x 39 = 39 × 12
  2. 39 x 39 is equivalent to 39 39 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 39 × 12 = 468

So, if the divisor is 39 and the quotient is 12, the dividend is 468.
