What value divided by 40 equals 68?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 40 and the quotient 68?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 40 × 68 = 2720

To prove this, let's compute 2720 divided by 40: 2720 40 = 68

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 40 gives a result of 68 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 40 = 68

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 40: 40 x 40 = 40 × 68
  2. 40 x 40 is equivalent to 40 40 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 40 × 68 = 2720

So, if the divisor is 40 and the quotient is 68, the dividend is 2720.
