What value divided by 70 equals 23?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 70 and the quotient 23?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 70 × 23 = 1610
To prove this, let's compute 1610 divided by 70:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 70 gives a result of 23 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 70:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 70 and the quotient is 23, the dividend is 1610.
