What value divided by 95 equals 5?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 95 and the quotient 5?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 95 × 5 = 475
To prove this, let's compute 475 divided by 95:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 95 gives a result of 5 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 95:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 95 and the quotient is 5, the dividend is 475.
