What value divided by 31 equals 27?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 31 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 31 × 27 = 837

To prove this, let's compute 837 divided by 31: 837 31 = 27

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 31 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 31 = 27

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 31: 31 x 31 = 31 × 27
  2. 31 x 31 is equivalent to 31 31 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 31 × 27 = 837

So, if the divisor is 31 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 837.
