What value divided by 87 equals 68?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 87 × 68 = 5916

To prove this, let's compute 5916 divided by 87: $\frac{5916}{87} = 68$

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 87 gives a result of 68 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{x}{87} = 68$

We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 87: $\frac{87 x}{87} = 87 \times 68$
$\frac{87 x}{87}$ is equivalent to $\frac{87}{87} x$ , which simplifies to $1 x$ (or just $x$ ).
Thus: $x = 87 \times 68 = 5916$

So, if the divisor is 87 and the quotient is 68, the dividend is 5916.
