What value divided by 99 equals 85?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 99 and the quotient 85?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 99 × 85 = 8415

To prove this, let's compute 8415 divided by 99: 8415 99 = 85

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 99 gives a result of 85 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 99 = 85

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 99: 99 x 99 = 99 × 85
  2. 99 x 99 is equivalent to 99 99 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 99 × 85 = 8415

So, if the divisor is 99 and the quotient is 85, the dividend is 8415.
