What value divided by 9 equals 43?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 9 and the quotient 43?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 9 × 43 = 387

To prove this, let's compute 387 divided by 9: 387 9 = 43

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 9 gives a result of 43 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 9 = 43

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 9: 9 x 9 = 9 × 43
  2. 9 x 9 is equivalent to 9 9 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 9 × 43 = 387

So, if the divisor is 9 and the quotient is 43, the dividend is 387.
