What value divided by 40 equals 99?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 40 and the quotient 99?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 40 × 99 = 3960

To prove this, let's compute 3960 divided by 40: 3960 40 = 99

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 40 gives a result of 99 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 40 = 99

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 40: 40 x 40 = 40 × 99
  2. 40 x 40 is equivalent to 40 40 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 40 × 99 = 3960

So, if the divisor is 40 and the quotient is 99, the dividend is 3960.
