What value divided by 72 equals 46?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 46?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 46 = 3312

To prove this, let's compute 3312 divided by 72: 3312 72 = 46

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 46 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 46

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 46
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 46 = 3312

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 46, the dividend is 3312.
