What value divided by 56 equals 23?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 56 and the quotient 23?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 56 × 23 = 1288

To prove this, let's compute 1288 divided by 56: 1288 56 = 23

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 56 gives a result of 23 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 56 = 23

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 56: 56 x 56 = 56 × 23
  2. 56 x 56 is equivalent to 56 56 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 56 × 23 = 1288

So, if the divisor is 56 and the quotient is 23, the dividend is 1288.
