What value divided by 9 equals 4?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 9 and the quotient 4?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 9 × 4 = 36

To prove this, let's compute 36 divided by 9: 36 9 = 4

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 9 gives a result of 4 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 9 = 4

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 9: 9 x 9 = 9 × 4
  2. 9 x 9 is equivalent to 9 9 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 9 × 4 = 36

So, if the divisor is 9 and the quotient is 4, the dividend is 36.
