What value divided by 51 equals 21?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 51 and the quotient 21?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 51 × 21 = 1071

To prove this, let's compute 1071 divided by 51: 1071 51 = 21

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 51 gives a result of 21 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 51 = 21

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 51: 51 x 51 = 51 × 21
  2. 51 x 51 is equivalent to 51 51 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 51 × 21 = 1071

So, if the divisor is 51 and the quotient is 21, the dividend is 1071.
