What value divided by 9 equals 56?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 9 and the quotient 56?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 9 × 56 = 504

To prove this, let's compute 504 divided by 9: 504 9 = 56

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 9 gives a result of 56 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 9 = 56

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 9: 9 x 9 = 9 × 56
  2. 9 x 9 is equivalent to 9 9 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 9 × 56 = 504

So, if the divisor is 9 and the quotient is 56, the dividend is 504.
