What value divided by 60 equals 87?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 60 and the quotient 87?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 60 × 87 = 5220

To prove this, let's compute 5220 divided by 60: 5220 60 = 87

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 60 gives a result of 87 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 60 = 87

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 60: 60 x 60 = 60 × 87
  2. 60 x 60 is equivalent to 60 60 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 60 × 87 = 5220

So, if the divisor is 60 and the quotient is 87, the dividend is 5220.
