What value divided by 50 equals 20?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 50 and the quotient 20?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 50 × 20 = 1000

To prove this, let's compute 1000 divided by 50: 1000 50 = 20

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 50 gives a result of 20 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 50 = 20

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 50: 50 x 50 = 50 × 20
  2. 50 x 50 is equivalent to 50 50 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 50 × 20 = 1000

So, if the divisor is 50 and the quotient is 20, the dividend is 1000.
