What value divided by 40 equals 83?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 40 and the quotient 83?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 40 × 83 = 3320

To prove this, let's compute 3320 divided by 40: 3320 40 = 83

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 40 gives a result of 83 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 40 = 83

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 40: 40 x 40 = 40 × 83
  2. 40 x 40 is equivalent to 40 40 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 40 × 83 = 3320

So, if the divisor is 40 and the quotient is 83, the dividend is 3320.
