What value divided by 56 equals 85?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 56 and the quotient 85?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 56 × 85 = 4760

To prove this, let's compute 4760 divided by 56: 4760 56 = 85

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 56 gives a result of 85 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 56 = 85

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 56: 56 x 56 = 56 × 85
  2. 56 x 56 is equivalent to 56 56 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 56 × 85 = 4760

So, if the divisor is 56 and the quotient is 85, the dividend is 4760.
