What value divided by 76 equals 3?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 76 and the quotient 3?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 76 × 3 = 228
To prove this, let's compute 228 divided by 76:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 76 gives a result of 3 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 76:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 76 and the quotient is 3, the dividend is 228.
