What value divided by 9 equals 2?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 9 and the quotient 2?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 9 × 2 = 18

To prove this, let's compute 18 divided by 9: 18 9 = 2

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 9 gives a result of 2 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 9 = 2

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 9: 9 x 9 = 9 × 2
  2. 9 x 9 is equivalent to 9 9 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 9 × 2 = 18

So, if the divisor is 9 and the quotient is 2, the dividend is 18.
