What value divided by 45 equals 3?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 45 and the quotient 3?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 45 × 3 = 135

To prove this, let's compute 135 divided by 45: 135 45 = 3

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 45 gives a result of 3 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 45 = 3

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 45: 45 x 45 = 45 × 3
  2. 45 x 45 is equivalent to 45 45 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 45 × 3 = 135

So, if the divisor is 45 and the quotient is 3, the dividend is 135.
