What value divided by 80 equals 61?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 80 and the quotient 61?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 80 × 61 = 4880
To prove this, let's compute 4880 divided by 80:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 80 gives a result of 61 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 61, the dividend is 4880.
