What value divided by 90 equals 38?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 90 and the quotient 38?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 90 × 38 = 3420
To prove this, let's compute 3420 divided by 90:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 90 gives a result of 38 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 90:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 90 and the quotient is 38, the dividend is 3420.
