What value divided by 100 equals 97?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 100 and the quotient 97?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 100 × 97 = 9700

To prove this, let's compute 9700 divided by 100: 9700 100 = 97

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 100 gives a result of 97 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 100 = 97

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 100: 100 x 100 = 100 × 97
  2. 100 x 100 is equivalent to 100 100 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 100 × 97 = 9700

So, if the divisor is 100 and the quotient is 97, the dividend is 9700.
