What value divided by 18 equals 86?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 18 and the quotient 86?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 18 × 86 = 1548

To prove this, let's compute 1548 divided by 18: 1548 18 = 86

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 18 gives a result of 86 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 18 = 86

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 18: 18 x 18 = 18 × 86
  2. 18 x 18 is equivalent to 18 18 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 18 × 86 = 1548

So, if the divisor is 18 and the quotient is 86, the dividend is 1548.
