What value divided by 41 equals 2?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 41 and the quotient 2?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 41 × 2 = 82
To prove this, let's compute 82 divided by 41:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 41 gives a result of 2 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 41:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 41 and the quotient is 2, the dividend is 82.
