What value divided by 42 equals 99?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 99?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 99 = 4158

To prove this, let's compute 4158 divided by 42: 4158 42 = 99

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 99 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 99

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 99
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 99 = 4158

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 99, the dividend is 4158.
