What value divided by 78 equals 5?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 78 and the quotient 5?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 78 × 5 = 390

To prove this, let's compute 390 divided by 78: 390 78 = 5

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 78 gives a result of 5 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 78 = 5

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 78: 78 x 78 = 78 × 5
  2. 78 x 78 is equivalent to 78 78 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 78 × 5 = 390

So, if the divisor is 78 and the quotient is 5, the dividend is 390.
