What value divided by 47 equals 85?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 47 and the quotient 85?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 47 × 85 = 3995

To prove this, let's compute 3995 divided by 47: 3995 47 = 85

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 47 gives a result of 85 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 47 = 85

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 47: 47 x 47 = 47 × 85
  2. 47 x 47 is equivalent to 47 47 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 47 × 85 = 3995

So, if the divisor is 47 and the quotient is 85, the dividend is 3995.
