What value divided by 40 equals 27?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 40 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 40 × 27 = 1080

To prove this, let's compute 1080 divided by 40: 1080 40 = 27

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 40 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 40 = 27

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 40: 40 x 40 = 40 × 27
  2. 40 x 40 is equivalent to 40 40 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 40 × 27 = 1080

So, if the divisor is 40 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 1080.
