What value divided by 70 equals 72?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 70 and the quotient 72?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 70 × 72 = 5040

To prove this, let's compute 5040 divided by 70: 5040 70 = 72

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 70 gives a result of 72 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 70 = 72

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 70: 70 x 70 = 70 × 72
  2. 70 x 70 is equivalent to 70 70 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 70 × 72 = 5040

So, if the divisor is 70 and the quotient is 72, the dividend is 5040.
