What value divided by 85 equals 31?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 31?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 31 = 2635

To prove this, let's compute 2635 divided by 85: 2635 85 = 31

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 31 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 31

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 31
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 31 = 2635

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 31, the dividend is 2635.
