What value divided by 71 equals 78?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 71 and the quotient 78?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 71 × 78 = 5538

To prove this, let's compute 5538 divided by 71: 5538 71 = 78

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 71 gives a result of 78 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 71 = 78

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 71: 71 x 71 = 71 × 78
  2. 71 x 71 is equivalent to 71 71 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 71 × 78 = 5538

So, if the divisor is 71 and the quotient is 78, the dividend is 5538.
