What value divided by 87 equals 100?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 87 and the quotient 100?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 87 × 100 = 8700

To prove this, let's compute 8700 divided by 87: 8700 87 = 100

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 87 gives a result of 100 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 87 = 100

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 87: 87 x 87 = 87 × 100
  2. 87 x 87 is equivalent to 87 87 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 87 × 100 = 8700

So, if the divisor is 87 and the quotient is 100, the dividend is 8700.
