What value divided by 88 equals 87?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 88 and the quotient 87?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 88 × 87 = 7656

To prove this, let's compute 7656 divided by 88: 7656 88 = 87

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 88 gives a result of 87 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 88 = 87

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 88: 88 x 88 = 88 × 87
  2. 88 x 88 is equivalent to 88 88 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 88 × 87 = 7656

So, if the divisor is 88 and the quotient is 87, the dividend is 7656.
