What value divided by 53 equals 21?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 53 and the quotient 21?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 53 × 21 = 1113

To prove this, let's compute 1113 divided by 53: 1113 53 = 21

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 53 gives a result of 21 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 53 = 21

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 53: 53 x 53 = 53 × 21
  2. 53 x 53 is equivalent to 53 53 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 53 × 21 = 1113

So, if the divisor is 53 and the quotient is 21, the dividend is 1113.
