What value divided by 89 equals 42?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 89 and the quotient 42?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 89 × 42 = 3738

To prove this, let's compute 3738 divided by 89: 3738 89 = 42

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 89 gives a result of 42 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 89 = 42

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 89: 89 x 89 = 89 × 42
  2. 89 x 89 is equivalent to 89 89 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 89 × 42 = 3738

So, if the divisor is 89 and the quotient is 42, the dividend is 3738.
