arriving at

Coming to reach

Arriving at means reaching a destination, conclusion, or decision.

You arrive at a place, but also at an understanding, a solution, or a figure: How did you arrive at that number?

The phrase implies a process—travel, deliberation, or calculation—that culminates in reaching the endpoint.
