What value divided by 42 equals 54?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 54?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 54 = 2268

To prove this, let's compute 2268 divided by 42: 2268 42 = 54

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 54 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 54

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 54
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 54 = 2268

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 54, the dividend is 2268.
