What value divided by 85 equals 77?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 85 and the quotient 77?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 85 × 77 = 6545

To prove this, let's compute 6545 divided by 85: 6545 85 = 77

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 85 gives a result of 77 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 85 = 77

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 85: 85 x 85 = 85 × 77
  2. 85 x 85 is equivalent to 85 85 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 85 × 77 = 6545

So, if the divisor is 85 and the quotient is 77, the dividend is 6545.
