What value divided by 57 equals 42?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 57 and the quotient 42?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 57 × 42 = 2394

To prove this, let's compute 2394 divided by 57: 2394 57 = 42

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 57 gives a result of 42 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 57 = 42

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 57: 57 x 57 = 57 × 42
  2. 57 x 57 is equivalent to 57 57 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 57 × 42 = 2394

So, if the divisor is 57 and the quotient is 42, the dividend is 2394.
