What value divided by 98 equals 87?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 98 and the quotient 87?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 98 × 87 = 8526

To prove this, let's compute 8526 divided by 98: 8526 98 = 87

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 98 gives a result of 87 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 98 = 87

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 98: 98 x 98 = 98 × 87
  2. 98 x 98 is equivalent to 98 98 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 98 × 87 = 8526

So, if the divisor is 98 and the quotient is 87, the dividend is 8526.
