What value divided by 74 equals 2?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 74 × 2 = 148

To prove this, let's compute 148 divided by 74: $\frac{148}{74} = 2$

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 74 gives a result of 2 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{x}{74} = 2$

We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 74: $\frac{74 x}{74} = 74 \times 2$
$\frac{74 x}{74}$ is equivalent to $\frac{74}{74} x$ , which simplifies to $1 x$ (or just $x$ ).
Thus: $x = 74 \times 2 = 148$

So, if the divisor is 74 and the quotient is 2, the dividend is 148.
