What value divided by 87 equals 46?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 87 and the quotient 46?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 87 × 46 = 4002

To prove this, let's compute 4002 divided by 87: 4002 87 = 46

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 87 gives a result of 46 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 87 = 46

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 87: 87 x 87 = 87 × 46
  2. 87 x 87 is equivalent to 87 87 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 87 × 46 = 4002

So, if the divisor is 87 and the quotient is 46, the dividend is 4002.
