What value divided by 82 equals 85?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 82 and the quotient 85?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 82 × 85 = 6970

To prove this, let's compute 6970 divided by 82: 6970 82 = 85

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 82 gives a result of 85 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 82 = 85

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 82: 82 x 82 = 82 × 85
  2. 82 x 82 is equivalent to 82 82 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 82 × 85 = 6970

So, if the divisor is 82 and the quotient is 85, the dividend is 6970.
