What value divided by 78 equals 16?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 78 and the quotient 16?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 78 × 16 = 1248

To prove this, let's compute 1248 divided by 78: 1248 78 = 16

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 78 gives a result of 16 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 78 = 16

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 78: 78 x 78 = 78 × 16
  2. 78 x 78 is equivalent to 78 78 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 78 × 16 = 1248

So, if the divisor is 78 and the quotient is 16, the dividend is 1248.
