What value divided by 85 equals 24?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 24?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 24 = 2040

To prove this, let's compute 2040 divided by 85: 2040 85 = 24

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 24 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 24

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 24
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 24 = 2040

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 24, the dividend is 2040.
