What value divided by 98 equals 72?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 98 and the quotient 72?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 98 × 72 = 7056

To prove this, let's compute 7056 divided by 98: 7056 98 = 72

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 98 gives a result of 72 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 98 = 72

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 98: 98 x 98 = 98 × 72
  2. 98 x 98 is equivalent to 98 98 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 98 × 72 = 7056

So, if the divisor is 98 and the quotient is 72, the dividend is 7056.
