What value divided by 72 equals 88?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 88?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 88 = 6336

To prove this, let's compute 6336 divided by 72: 6336 72 = 88

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 88 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 88

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 88
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 88 = 6336

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 88, the dividend is 6336.
