What value divided by 74 equals 85?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 74 and the quotient 85?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 74 × 85 = 6290

To prove this, let's compute 6290 divided by 74: 6290 74 = 85

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 74 gives a result of 85 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 74 = 85

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 74: 74 x 74 = 74 × 85
  2. 74 x 74 is equivalent to 74 74 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 74 × 85 = 6290

So, if the divisor is 74 and the quotient is 85, the dividend is 6290.
