What value divided by 8 equals 6?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 8 and the quotient 6?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 8 × 6 = 48

To prove this, let's compute 48 divided by 8: 48 8 = 6

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 8 gives a result of 6 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 8 = 6

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 8: 8 x 8 = 8 × 6
  2. 8 x 8 is equivalent to 8 8 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 8 × 6 = 48

So, if the divisor is 8 and the quotient is 6, the dividend is 48.
