What value divided by 42 equals 52?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 52?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 52 = 2184

To prove this, let's compute 2184 divided by 42: 2184 42 = 52

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 52 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 52

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 52
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 52 = 2184

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 52, the dividend is 2184.
