Answer: By cross multiplication.

Step-by-step explanation: Given product is 3 × 292.

We know that after simple multiplication, we get 3 × 292 = 876.

Now, to check division with multiplication, either we need to divide 876 by 3 to get the answer 292,

or

we need to divide 876 by 292 to get the answer 3.

We will do that as follows -

$(876)/(3)=292~~~\textup{and}~~~(876)/(292)=3.$

Thus, doing cross-multiplication, we arrive at our conclusion.
