What value divided by 84 equals 85?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 84 and the quotient 85?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 84 × 85 = 7140

To prove this, let's compute 7140 divided by 84: 7140 84 = 85

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 84 gives a result of 85 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 84 = 85

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 84: 84 x 84 = 84 × 85
  2. 84 x 84 is equivalent to 84 84 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 84 × 85 = 7140

So, if the divisor is 84 and the quotient is 85, the dividend is 7140.
