What value divided by 79 equals 85?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 79 and the quotient 85?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 79 × 85 = 6715

To prove this, let's compute 6715 divided by 79: 6715 79 = 85

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 79 gives a result of 85 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 79 = 85

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 79: 79 x 79 = 79 × 85
  2. 79 x 79 is equivalent to 79 79 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 79 × 85 = 6715

So, if the divisor is 79 and the quotient is 85, the dividend is 6715.
