What value divided by 96 equals 72?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 96 and the quotient 72?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 96 × 72 = 6912

To prove this, let's compute 6912 divided by 96: 6912 96 = 72

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 96 gives a result of 72 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 96 = 72

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 96: 96 x 96 = 96 × 72
  2. 96 x 96 is equivalent to 96 96 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 96 × 72 = 6912

So, if the divisor is 96 and the quotient is 72, the dividend is 6912.
