What value divided by 56 equals 10?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 56 and the quotient 10?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 56 × 10 = 560
To prove this, let's compute 560 divided by 56:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 56 gives a result of 10 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 56:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 56 and the quotient is 10, the dividend is 560.
