What value divided by 26 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 26 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 26 × 40 = 1040

To prove this, let's compute 1040 divided by 26: 1040 26 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 26 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 26 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 26: 26 x 26 = 26 × 40
  2. 26 x 26 is equivalent to 26 26 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 26 × 40 = 1040

So, if the divisor is 26 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 1040.
