What value divided by 81 equals 79?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 81 and the quotient 79?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 81 × 79 = 6399

To prove this, let's compute 6399 divided by 81: 6399 81 = 79

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 81 gives a result of 79 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 81 = 79

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 81: 81 x 81 = 81 × 79
  2. 81 x 81 is equivalent to 81 81 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 81 × 79 = 6399

So, if the divisor is 81 and the quotient is 79, the dividend is 6399.
