What value divided by 42 equals 60?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 60?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 60 = 2520

To prove this, let's compute 2520 divided by 42: 2520 42 = 60

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 60 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 60

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 60
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 60 = 2520

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 60, the dividend is 2520.
