What value divided by 78 equals 77?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 78 and the quotient 77?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 78 × 77 = 6006

To prove this, let's compute 6006 divided by 78: 6006 78 = 77

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 78 gives a result of 77 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 78 = 77

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 78: 78 x 78 = 78 × 77
  2. 78 x 78 is equivalent to 78 78 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 78 × 77 = 6006

So, if the divisor is 78 and the quotient is 77, the dividend is 6006.
