What value divided by 28 equals 87?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 28 and the quotient 87?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 28 × 87 = 2436

To prove this, let's compute 2436 divided by 28: 2436 28 = 87

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 28 gives a result of 87 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 28 = 87

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 28: 28 x 28 = 28 × 87
  2. 28 x 28 is equivalent to 28 28 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 28 × 87 = 2436

So, if the divisor is 28 and the quotient is 87, the dividend is 2436.
