What value divided by 85 equals 32?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 32?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 32 = 2720

To prove this, let's compute 2720 divided by 85: 2720 85 = 32

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 32 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 32

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 32
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 32 = 2720

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 32, the dividend is 2720.
