What value divided by 27 equals 30?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 27 and the quotient 30?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 27 × 30 = 810
To prove this, let's compute 810 divided by 27:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 27 gives a result of 30 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 27:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 27 and the quotient is 30, the dividend is 810.
