What value divided by 72 equals 60?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 60?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 60 = 4320

To prove this, let's compute 4320 divided by 72: 4320 72 = 60

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 60 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 60

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 60
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 60 = 4320

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 60, the dividend is 4320.
