What value divided by 7 equals 86?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 7 and the quotient 86?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 7 × 86 = 602

To prove this, let's compute 602 divided by 7: 602 7 = 86

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 7 gives a result of 86 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 7 = 86

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 7: 7 x 7 = 7 × 86
  2. 7 x 7 is equivalent to 7 7 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 7 × 86 = 602

So, if the divisor is 7 and the quotient is 86, the dividend is 602.
