What value divided by 68 equals 2?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 68 and the quotient 2?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 68 × 2 = 136
To prove this, let's compute 136 divided by 68:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 68 gives a result of 2 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 68:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 68 and the quotient is 2, the dividend is 136.
