What value divided by 34 equals 87?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 34 and the quotient 87?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 34 × 87 = 2958

To prove this, let's compute 2958 divided by 34: 2958 34 = 87

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 34 gives a result of 87 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 34 = 87

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 34: 34 x 34 = 34 × 87
  2. 34 x 34 is equivalent to 34 34 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 34 × 87 = 2958

So, if the divisor is 34 and the quotient is 87, the dividend is 2958.
