What value divided by 40 equals 74?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 40 and the quotient 74?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 40 × 74 = 2960

To prove this, let's compute 2960 divided by 40: 2960 40 = 74

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 40 gives a result of 74 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 40 = 74

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 40: 40 x 40 = 40 × 74
  2. 40 x 40 is equivalent to 40 40 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 40 × 74 = 2960

So, if the divisor is 40 and the quotient is 74, the dividend is 2960.
