What value divided by 82 equals 78?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 82 and the quotient 78?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 82 × 78 = 6396

To prove this, let's compute 6396 divided by 82: 6396 82 = 78

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 82 gives a result of 78 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 82 = 78

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 82: 82 x 82 = 82 × 78
  2. 82 x 82 is equivalent to 82 82 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 82 × 78 = 6396

So, if the divisor is 82 and the quotient is 78, the dividend is 6396.
