What value divided by 28 equals 27?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 28 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 28 × 27 = 756

To prove this, let's compute 756 divided by 28: 756 28 = 27

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 28 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 28 = 27

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 28: 28 x 28 = 28 × 27
  2. 28 x 28 is equivalent to 28 28 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 28 × 27 = 756

So, if the divisor is 28 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 756.
