What value divided by 58 equals 87?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 58 and the quotient 87?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 58 × 87 = 5046

To prove this, let's compute 5046 divided by 58: 5046 58 = 87

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 58 gives a result of 87 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 58 = 87

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 58: 58 x 58 = 58 × 87
  2. 58 x 58 is equivalent to 58 58 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 58 × 87 = 5046

So, if the divisor is 58 and the quotient is 87, the dividend is 5046.
