What value divided by 84 equals 83?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 84 and the quotient 83?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 84 × 83 = 6972

To prove this, let's compute 6972 divided by 84: 6972 84 = 83

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 84 gives a result of 83 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 84 = 83

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 84: 84 x 84 = 84 × 83
  2. 84 x 84 is equivalent to 84 84 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 84 × 83 = 6972

So, if the divisor is 84 and the quotient is 83, the dividend is 6972.
