What value divided by 87 equals 43?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 87 and the quotient 43?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 87 × 43 = 3741

To prove this, let's compute 3741 divided by 87: 3741 87 = 43

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 87 gives a result of 43 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 87 = 43

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 87: 87 x 87 = 87 × 43
  2. 87 x 87 is equivalent to 87 87 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 87 × 43 = 3741

So, if the divisor is 87 and the quotient is 43, the dividend is 3741.
