What value divided by 42 equals 55?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 55?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 55 = 2310

To prove this, let's compute 2310 divided by 42: 2310 42 = 55

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 55 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 55

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 55
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 55 = 2310

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 55, the dividend is 2310.
