What value divided by 15 equals 84?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 15 and the quotient 84?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 15 × 84 = 1260

To prove this, let's compute 1260 divided by 15: 1260 15 = 84

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 15 gives a result of 84 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 15 = 84

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 15: 15 x 15 = 15 × 84
  2. 15 x 15 is equivalent to 15 15 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 15 × 84 = 1260

So, if the divisor is 15 and the quotient is 84, the dividend is 1260.
