What value divided by 53 equals 2?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 53 and the quotient 2?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 53 × 2 = 106

To prove this, let's compute 106 divided by 53: 106 53 = 2

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 53 gives a result of 2 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 53 = 2

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 53: 53 x 53 = 53 × 2
  2. 53 x 53 is equivalent to 53 53 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 53 × 2 = 106

So, if the divisor is 53 and the quotient is 2, the dividend is 106.
