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