When numbers are divided, the result is called the quotient.
When numbers are multiplied, the result is called the product.
To check the result of a multiplication problem, divide the result (the product) by one of the multipliers. The quotient will be the other multiplier.
EXAMPLE : To verify that 387 x 211 = 81657, then divide 81657 by 387. The answer (quotient) is 211.
