What value divided by 27 equals 55?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 27 and the quotient 55?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 27 × 55 = 1485

To prove this, let's compute 1485 divided by 27: 1485 27 = 55

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 27 gives a result of 55 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 27 = 55

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 27: 27 x 27 = 27 × 55
  2. 27 x 27 is equivalent to 27 27 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 27 × 55 = 1485

So, if the divisor is 27 and the quotient is 55, the dividend is 1485.
