What value divided by 45 equals 16?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 45 and the quotient 16?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 45 × 16 = 720

To prove this, let's compute 720 divided by 45: 720 45 = 16

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 45 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 45 = 16

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 45: 45 x 45 = 45 × 16
  2. 45 x 45 is equivalent to 45 45 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 45 × 16 = 720

So, if the divisor is 45 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 720.
