What value divided by 56 equals 36?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 56 and the quotient 36?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 56 × 36 = 2016

To prove this, let's compute 2016 divided by 56: 2016 56 = 36

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 56 gives a result of 36 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 56 = 36

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 56: 56 x 56 = 56 × 36
  2. 56 x 56 is equivalent to 56 56 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 56 × 36 = 2016

So, if the divisor is 56 and the quotient is 36, the dividend is 2016.
