What value divided by 86 equals 15?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 86 and the quotient 15?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 86 × 15 = 1290

To prove this, let's compute 1290 divided by 86: 1290 86 = 15

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 86 gives a result of 15 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 86 = 15

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 86: 86 x 86 = 86 × 15
  2. 86 x 86 is equivalent to 86 86 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 86 × 15 = 1290

So, if the divisor is 86 and the quotient is 15, the dividend is 1290.
