What value divided by 85 equals 55?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 55?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 55 = 4675

To prove this, let's compute 4675 divided by 85: 4675 85 = 55

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 55 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 55

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 55
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 55 = 4675

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 55, the dividend is 4675.
