What value divided by 65 equals 42?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 65 and the quotient 42?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 65 × 42 = 2730

To prove this, let's compute 2730 divided by 65: 2730 65 = 42

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 65 gives a result of 42 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 65 = 42

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 65: 65 x 65 = 65 × 42
  2. 65 x 65 is equivalent to 65 65 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 65 × 42 = 2730

So, if the divisor is 65 and the quotient is 42, the dividend is 2730.
