What value divided by 72 equals 80?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 80?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 80 = 5760

To prove this, let's compute 5760 divided by 72: 5760 72 = 80

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 80 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 80

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 80
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 80 = 5760

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 80, the dividend is 5760.
