What value divided by 43 equals 42?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 43 and the quotient 42?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 43 × 42 = 1806

To prove this, let's compute 1806 divided by 43: 1806 43 = 42

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 43 gives a result of 42 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 43 = 42

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 43: 43 x 43 = 43 × 42
  2. 43 x 43 is equivalent to 43 43 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 43 × 42 = 1806

So, if the divisor is 43 and the quotient is 42, the dividend is 1806.
