What value divided by 85 equals 60?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 60?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 60 = 5100

To prove this, let's compute 5100 divided by 85: 5100 85 = 60

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 60 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 60

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 60
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 60 = 5100

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 60, the dividend is 5100.
