What value divided by 42 equals 48?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 48?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 48 = 2016

To prove this, let's compute 2016 divided by 42: 2016 42 = 48

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 48 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 48

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 48
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 48 = 2016

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 48, the dividend is 2016.
