What value divided by 42 equals 75?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 75?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 75 = 3150

To prove this, let's compute 3150 divided by 42: 3150 42 = 75

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 75 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 75

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 75
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 75 = 3150

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 75, the dividend is 3150.
