What value divided by 72 equals 70?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 70?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 70 = 5040

To prove this, let's compute 5040 divided by 72: 5040 72 = 70

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 70 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 70

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 70
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 70 = 5040

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 70, the dividend is 5040.
