What value divided by 53 equals 52?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 53 and the quotient 52?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 53 × 52 = 2756

To prove this, let's compute 2756 divided by 53: 2756 53 = 52

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 53 gives a result of 52 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 53 = 52

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 53: 53 x 53 = 53 × 52
  2. 53 x 53 is equivalent to 53 53 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 53 × 52 = 2756

So, if the divisor is 53 and the quotient is 52, the dividend is 2756.
