What value divided by 56 equals 25?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 56 and the quotient 25?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 56 × 25 = 1400
To prove this, let's compute 1400 divided by 56:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 56 gives a result of 25 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 25, the dividend is 1400.
