What value divided by 44 equals 45?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 44 and the quotient 45?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 44 × 45 = 1980
To prove this, let's compute 1980 divided by 44:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 44 gives a result of 45 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 44:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 44 and the quotient is 45, the dividend is 1980.
