What value divided by 6 equals 100?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 6 and the quotient 100?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 6 × 100 = 600
To prove this, let's compute 600 divided by 6:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 6 gives a result of 100 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 6:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 6 and the quotient is 100, the dividend is 600.
