What value divided by 48 equals 51?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 48 and the quotient 51?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 48 × 51 = 2448
To prove this, let's compute 2448 divided by 48:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 48 gives a result of 51 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 51, the dividend is 2448.
