What value divided by 78 equals 15?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 78 and the quotient 15?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 78 × 15 = 1170

To prove this, let's compute 1170 divided by 78: 1170 78 = 15

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 78 gives a result of 15 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 78 = 15

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 78: 78 x 78 = 78 × 15
  2. 78 x 78 is equivalent to 78 78 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 78 × 15 = 1170

So, if the divisor is 78 and the quotient is 15, the dividend is 1170.
