What value divided by 97 equals 10?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 97 and the quotient 10?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 97 × 10 = 970
To prove this, let's compute 970 divided by 97:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 97 gives a result of 10 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 97:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 97 and the quotient is 10, the dividend is 970.
