What value divided by 71 equals 20?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 71 and the quotient 20?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 71 × 20 = 1420

To prove this, let's compute 1420 divided by 71: 1420 71 = 20

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 71 gives a result of 20 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 71 = 20

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 71: 71 x 71 = 71 × 20
  2. 71 x 71 is equivalent to 71 71 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 71 × 20 = 1420

So, if the divisor is 71 and the quotient is 20, the dividend is 1420.
