What value divided by 72 equals 52?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 52?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 52 = 3744

To prove this, let's compute 3744 divided by 72: 3744 72 = 52

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 52 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 52

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 52
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 52 = 3744

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 52, the dividend is 3744.
