What value divided by 43 equals 16?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 43 and the quotient 16?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 43 × 16 = 688

To prove this, let's compute 688 divided by 43: 688 43 = 16

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 43 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 43 = 16

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 43: 43 x 43 = 43 × 16
  2. 43 x 43 is equivalent to 43 43 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 43 × 16 = 688

So, if the divisor is 43 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 688.
