What value divided by 49 equals 72?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 49 and the quotient 72?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 49 × 72 = 3528

To prove this, let's compute 3528 divided by 49: 3528 49 = 72

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 49 gives a result of 72 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 49 = 72

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 49: 49 x 49 = 49 × 72
  2. 49 x 49 is equivalent to 49 49 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 49 × 72 = 3528

So, if the divisor is 49 and the quotient is 72, the dividend is 3528.
