What value divided by 42 equals 26?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 26?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 26 = 1092

To prove this, let's compute 1092 divided by 42: 1092 42 = 26

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 26 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 26

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 26
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 26 = 1092

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 26, the dividend is 1092.
