What value divided by 72 equals 100?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 100?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 100 = 7200

To prove this, let's compute 7200 divided by 72: 7200 72 = 100

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 100 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 100

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 100
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 100 = 7200

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 100, the dividend is 7200.
