What value divided by 72 equals 84?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 84?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 84 = 6048

To prove this, let's compute 6048 divided by 72: 6048 72 = 84

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 84 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 84

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 84
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 84 = 6048

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 84, the dividend is 6048.
