What value divided by 9 equals 59?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 9 and the quotient 59?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 9 × 59 = 531

To prove this, let's compute 531 divided by 9: 531 9 = 59

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 9 gives a result of 59 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 9 = 59

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 9: 9 x 9 = 9 × 59
  2. 9 x 9 is equivalent to 9 9 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 9 × 59 = 531

So, if the divisor is 9 and the quotient is 59, the dividend is 531.
