What value divided by 30 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 30 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 30 × 40 = 1200

To prove this, let's compute 1200 divided by 30: 1200 30 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 30 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 30 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 30: 30 x 30 = 30 × 40
  2. 30 x 30 is equivalent to 30 30 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 30 × 40 = 1200

So, if the divisor is 30 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 1200.
