What value divided by 72 equals 89?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 72 and the quotient 89?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 72 × 89 = 6408

To prove this, let's compute 6408 divided by 72: 6408 72 = 89

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 72 gives a result of 89 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 72 = 89

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 72: 72 x 72 = 72 × 89
  2. 72 x 72 is equivalent to 72 72 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 72 × 89 = 6408

So, if the divisor is 72 and the quotient is 89, the dividend is 6408.
