What value divided by 100 equals 89?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 100 and the quotient 89?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 100 × 89 = 8900

To prove this, let's compute 8900 divided by 100: 8900 100 = 89

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 100 gives a result of 89 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 100 = 89

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 100: 100 x 100 = 100 × 89
  2. 100 x 100 is equivalent to 100 100 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 100 × 89 = 8900

So, if the divisor is 100 and the quotient is 89, the dividend is 8900.
