What value divided by 42 equals 18?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 18?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 18 = 756

To prove this, let's compute 756 divided by 42: 756 42 = 18

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 18 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 18

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 18
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 18 = 756

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 18, the dividend is 756.
