What value divided by 80 equals 42?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 80 and the quotient 42?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 80 × 42 = 3360

To prove this, let's compute 3360 divided by 80: 3360 80 = 42

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 80 gives a result of 42 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 80 = 42

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 80: 80 x 80 = 80 × 42
  2. 80 x 80 is equivalent to 80 80 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 80 × 42 = 3360

So, if the divisor is 80 and the quotient is 42, the dividend is 3360.
