What value divided by 87 equals 38?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 87 and the quotient 38?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 87 × 38 = 3306

To prove this, let's compute 3306 divided by 87: 3306 87 = 38

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 87 gives a result of 38 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 87 = 38

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 87: 87 x 87 = 87 × 38
  2. 87 x 87 is equivalent to 87 87 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 87 × 38 = 3306

So, if the divisor is 87 and the quotient is 38, the dividend is 3306.
