What value divided by 60 equals 12?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 60 and the quotient 12?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 60 × 12 = 720

To prove this, let's compute 720 divided by 60: 720 60 = 12

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 60 gives a result of 12 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 60 = 12

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 60: 60 x 60 = 60 × 12
  2. 60 x 60 is equivalent to 60 60 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 60 × 12 = 720

So, if the divisor is 60 and the quotient is 12, the dividend is 720.
