What value divided by 98 equals 42?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 98 and the quotient 42?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 98 × 42 = 4116

To prove this, let's compute 4116 divided by 98: 4116 98 = 42

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 98 gives a result of 42 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 98 = 42

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 98: 98 x 98 = 98 × 42
  2. 98 x 98 is equivalent to 98 98 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 98 × 42 = 4116

So, if the divisor is 98 and the quotient is 42, the dividend is 4116.
