What value divided by 48 equals 30?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 48 and the quotient 30?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 48 × 30 = 1440
To prove this, let's compute 1440 divided by 48:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 48 gives a result of 30 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 48:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 48 and the quotient is 30, the dividend is 1440.
