What value divided by 56 equals 55?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 56 and the quotient 55?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 56 × 55 = 3080

To prove this, let's compute 3080 divided by 56: 3080 56 = 55

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 56 gives a result of 55 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 56 = 55

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 56: 56 x 56 = 56 × 55
  2. 56 x 56 is equivalent to 56 56 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 56 × 55 = 3080

So, if the divisor is 56 and the quotient is 55, the dividend is 3080.
