What value divided by 24 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 24 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 24 × 40 = 960

To prove this, let's compute 960 divided by 24: 960 24 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 24 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 24 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 24: 24 x 24 = 24 × 40
  2. 24 x 24 is equivalent to 24 24 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 24 × 40 = 960

So, if the divisor is 24 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 960.
