What value divided by 83 equals 71?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 83 and the quotient 71?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 83 × 71 = 5893

To prove this, let's compute 5893 divided by 83: 5893 83 = 71

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 83 gives a result of 71 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 83 = 71

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 83: 83 x 83 = 83 × 71
  2. 83 x 83 is equivalent to 83 83 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 83 × 71 = 5893

So, if the divisor is 83 and the quotient is 71, the dividend is 5893.
