What value divided by 80 equals 38?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 80 and the quotient 38?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 80 × 38 = 3040
To prove this, let's compute 3040 divided by 80:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 80 gives a result of 38 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 80:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 80 and the quotient is 38, the dividend is 3040.
