What value divided by 72 equals 32?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 32?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 32 = 2304

To prove this, let's compute 2304 divided by 72: 2304 72 = 32

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 32 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 32

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 32
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 32 = 2304

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 32, the dividend is 2304.
