What value divided by 86 equals 5?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 86 and the quotient 5?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 86 × 5 = 430

To prove this, let's compute 430 divided by 86: 430 86 = 5

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 86 gives a result of 5 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 86 = 5

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 86: 86 x 86 = 86 × 5
  2. 86 x 86 is equivalent to 86 86 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 86 × 5 = 430

So, if the divisor is 86 and the quotient is 5, the dividend is 430.
