What value divided by 79 equals 12?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 79 and the quotient 12?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 79 × 12 = 948

To prove this, let's compute 948 divided by 79: 948 79 = 12

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 79 gives a result of 12 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 79 = 12

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 79: 79 x 79 = 79 × 12
  2. 79 x 79 is equivalent to 79 79 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 79 × 12 = 948

So, if the divisor is 79 and the quotient is 12, the dividend is 948.
