What value divided by 85 equals 36?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 36?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 36 = 3060

To prove this, let's compute 3060 divided by 85: 3060 85 = 36

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 36 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 36

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 36
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 36 = 3060

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 36, the dividend is 3060.
