What value divided by 40 equals 37?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 40 and the quotient 37?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 40 × 37 = 1480

To prove this, let's compute 1480 divided by 40: 1480 40 = 37

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 40 gives a result of 37 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 40 = 37

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 40: 40 x 40 = 40 × 37
  2. 40 x 40 is equivalent to 40 40 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 40 × 37 = 1480

So, if the divisor is 40 and the quotient is 37, the dividend is 1480.
