What value divided by 87 equals 60?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 87 and the quotient 60?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 87 × 60 = 5220

To prove this, let's compute 5220 divided by 87: 5220 87 = 60

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 87 gives a result of 60 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 87 = 60

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 87: 87 x 87 = 87 × 60
  2. 87 x 87 is equivalent to 87 87 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 87 × 60 = 5220

So, if the divisor is 87 and the quotient is 60, the dividend is 5220.
