What value divided by 85 equals 50?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 50?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 50 = 4250

To prove this, let's compute 4250 divided by 85: 4250 85 = 50

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 50 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 50

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 50
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 50 = 4250

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 50, the dividend is 4250.
