What value divided by 85 equals 48?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 48?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 48 = 4080

To prove this, let's compute 4080 divided by 85: 4080 85 = 48

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 48 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 48

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 48
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 48 = 4080

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 48, the dividend is 4080.
