What value divided by 31 equals 28?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 28?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 28 = 868

To prove this, let's compute 868 divided by 31: 868 31 = 28

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 28 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 31 = 28

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31: 31 x 31 = 31 × 28
  2. 31 x 31 is equivalent to 31 31 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 31 × 28 = 868

So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 28, the dividend is 868.
