What value divided by 85 equals 12?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 12?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 12 = 1020

To prove this, let's compute 1020 divided by 85: 1020 85 = 12

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 12 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 12

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 12
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 12 = 1020

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 12, the dividend is 1020.
