What value divided by 48 equals 78?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 48 and the quotient 78?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 48 × 78 = 3744

To prove this, let's compute 3744 divided by 48: 3744 48 = 78

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 48 gives a result of 78 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 48 = 78

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 48: 48 x 48 = 48 × 78
  2. 48 x 48 is equivalent to 48 48 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 48 × 78 = 3744

So, if the divisor is 48 and the quotient is 78, the dividend is 3744.
