What value divided by 72 equals 57?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 57?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 57 = 4104

To prove this, let's compute 4104 divided by 72: 4104 72 = 57

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 57 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 57

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 57
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 57 = 4104

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 57, the dividend is 4104.
