What value divided by 32 equals 27?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 32 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 32 × 27 = 864

To prove this, let's compute 864 divided by 32: 864 32 = 27

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 32 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 32 = 27

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 32: 32 x 32 = 32 × 27
  2. 32 x 32 is equivalent to 32 32 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 32 × 27 = 864

So, if the divisor is 32 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 864.
