What value divided by 40 equals 47?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 40 and the quotient 47?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 40 × 47 = 1880

To prove this, let's compute 1880 divided by 40: 1880 40 = 47

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 40 gives a result of 47 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 40 = 47

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 40: 40 x 40 = 40 × 47
  2. 40 x 40 is equivalent to 40 40 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 40 × 47 = 1880

So, if the divisor is 40 and the quotient is 47, the dividend is 1880.
