What value divided by 72 equals 59?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 59?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 59 = 4248

To prove this, let's compute 4248 divided by 72: 4248 72 = 59

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 59 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 59

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 59
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 59 = 4248

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 59, the dividend is 4248.
