What value divided by 42 equals 80?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 80?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 80 = 3360

To prove this, let's compute 3360 divided by 42: 3360 42 = 80

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 80 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 80

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 80
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 80 = 3360

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 80, the dividend is 3360.
