What value divided by 55 equals 16?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 55 and the quotient 16?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 55 × 16 = 880

To prove this, let's compute 880 divided by 55: 880 55 = 16

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 55 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 55 = 16

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 55: 55 x 55 = 55 × 16
  2. 55 x 55 is equivalent to 55 55 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 55 × 16 = 880

So, if the divisor is 55 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 880.
