What value divided by 42 equals 50?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 50?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 50 = 2100

To prove this, let's compute 2100 divided by 42: 2100 42 = 50

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 50 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 50

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 50
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 50 = 2100

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 50, the dividend is 2100.
