What value divided by 42 equals 47?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 47?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 47 = 1974

To prove this, let's compute 1974 divided by 42: 1974 42 = 47

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 47 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 47

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 47
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 47 = 1974

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 47, the dividend is 1974.
