What value divided by 26 equals 86?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 26 and the quotient 86?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 26 × 86 = 2236

To prove this, let's compute 2236 divided by 26: 2236 26 = 86

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 26 gives a result of 86 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 26 = 86

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 26: 26 x 26 = 26 × 86
  2. 26 x 26 is equivalent to 26 26 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 26 × 86 = 2236

So, if the divisor is 26 and the quotient is 86, the dividend is 2236.
