What value divided by 32 equals 85?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 32 and the quotient 85?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 32 × 85 = 2720

To prove this, let's compute 2720 divided by 32: 2720 32 = 85

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 32 gives a result of 85 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 32 = 85

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 32: 32 x 32 = 32 × 85
  2. 32 x 32 is equivalent to 32 32 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 32 × 85 = 2720

So, if the divisor is 32 and the quotient is 85, the dividend is 2720.
