What value divided by 70 equals 6?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 70 and the quotient 6?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 70 × 6 = 420
To prove this, let's compute 420 divided by 70:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 70 gives a result of 6 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 6, the dividend is 420.
