What value divided by 87 equals 45?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 87 and the quotient 45?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 87 × 45 = 3915

To prove this, let's compute 3915 divided by 87: 3915 87 = 45

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 87 gives a result of 45 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 87 = 45

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 87: 87 x 87 = 87 × 45
  2. 87 x 87 is equivalent to 87 87 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 87 × 45 = 3915

So, if the divisor is 87 and the quotient is 45, the dividend is 3915.
