What value divided by 78 equals 79?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 78 and the quotient 79?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 78 × 79 = 6162

To prove this, let's compute 6162 divided by 78: 6162 78 = 79

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 78 gives a result of 79 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 78 = 79

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 78: 78 x 78 = 78 × 79
  2. 78 x 78 is equivalent to 78 78 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 78 × 79 = 6162

So, if the divisor is 78 and the quotient is 79, the dividend is 6162.
