What value divided by 82 equals 79?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 82 and the quotient 79?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 82 × 79 = 6478

To prove this, let's compute 6478 divided by 82: 6478 82 = 79

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 82 gives a result of 79 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 82 = 79

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 82: 82 x 82 = 82 × 79
  2. 82 x 82 is equivalent to 82 82 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 82 × 79 = 6478

So, if the divisor is 82 and the quotient is 79, the dividend is 6478.
