What value divided by 40 equals 18?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 40 and the quotient 18?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 40 × 18 = 720

To prove this, let's compute 720 divided by 40: 720 40 = 18

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 40 gives a result of 18 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 40 = 18

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 40: 40 x 40 = 40 × 18
  2. 40 x 40 is equivalent to 40 40 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 40 × 18 = 720

So, if the divisor is 40 and the quotient is 18, the dividend is 720.
