What value divided by 59 equals 58?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 59 and the quotient 58?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 59 × 58 = 3422

To prove this, let's compute 3422 divided by 59: 3422 59 = 58

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 59 gives a result of 58 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 59 = 58

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 59: 59 x 59 = 59 × 58
  2. 59 x 59 is equivalent to 59 59 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 59 × 58 = 3422

So, if the divisor is 59 and the quotient is 58, the dividend is 3422.
