What value divided by 42 equals 97?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 97?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 97 = 4074

To prove this, let's compute 4074 divided by 42: 4074 42 = 97

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 97 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 97

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 97
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 97 = 4074

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 97, the dividend is 4074.
