What value divided by 42 equals 58?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 58?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 58 = 2436

To prove this, let's compute 2436 divided by 42: 2436 42 = 58

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 58 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 58

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 58
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 58 = 2436

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 58, the dividend is 2436.
