What value divided by 56 equals 30?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 56 and the quotient 30?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 56 × 30 = 1680
To prove this, let's compute 1680 divided by 56:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 56 gives a result of 30 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 30, the dividend is 1680.
