What value divided by 10 equals 86?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 10 and the quotient 86?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 10 × 86 = 860

To prove this, let's compute 860 divided by 10: 860 10 = 86

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 10 gives a result of 86 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 10 = 86

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 10: 10 x 10 = 10 × 86
  2. 10 x 10 is equivalent to 10 10 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 10 × 86 = 860

So, if the divisor is 10 and the quotient is 86, the dividend is 860.
