What value divided by 80 equals 78?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 80 and the quotient 78?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 80 × 78 = 6240

To prove this, let's compute 6240 divided by 80: 6240 80 = 78

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 80 gives a result of 78 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 80 = 78

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 80: 80 x 80 = 80 × 78
  2. 80 x 80 is equivalent to 80 80 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 80 × 78 = 6240

So, if the divisor is 80 and the quotient is 78, the dividend is 6240.
