What value divided by 27 equals 23?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 27 and the quotient 23?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 27 × 23 = 621

To prove this, let's compute 621 divided by 27: 621 27 = 23

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 27 gives a result of 23 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 27 = 23

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 27: 27 x 27 = 27 × 23
  2. 27 x 27 is equivalent to 27 27 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 27 × 23 = 621

So, if the divisor is 27 and the quotient is 23, the dividend is 621.
