What value divided by 89 equals 72?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 89 and the quotient 72?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 89 × 72 = 6408

To prove this, let's compute 6408 divided by 89: 6408 89 = 72

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 89 gives a result of 72 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 89 = 72

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 89: 89 x 89 = 89 × 72
  2. 89 x 89 is equivalent to 89 89 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 89 × 72 = 6408

So, if the divisor is 89 and the quotient is 72, the dividend is 6408.
