What value divided by 82 equals 42?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 82 and the quotient 42?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 82 × 42 = 3444

To prove this, let's compute 3444 divided by 82: 3444 82 = 42

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 82 gives a result of 42 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 82 = 42

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 82: 82 x 82 = 82 × 42
  2. 82 x 82 is equivalent to 82 82 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 82 × 42 = 3444

So, if the divisor is 82 and the quotient is 42, the dividend is 3444.
