What value divided by 83 equals 100?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 83 and the quotient 100?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 83 × 100 = 8300
To prove this, let's compute 8300 divided by 83:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 83 gives a result of 100 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 83:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 83 and the quotient is 100, the dividend is 8300.
