What value divided by 48 equals 20?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 48 and the quotient 20?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 48 × 20 = 960

To prove this, let's compute 960 divided by 48: 960 48 = 20

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 48 gives a result of 20 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 48 = 20

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 48: 48 x 48 = 48 × 20
  2. 48 x 48 is equivalent to 48 48 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 48 × 20 = 960

So, if the divisor is 48 and the quotient is 20, the dividend is 960.
