What value divided by 41 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 41 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 41 × 40 = 1640

To prove this, let's compute 1640 divided by 41: 1640 41 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 41 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 41 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 41: 41 x 41 = 41 × 40
  2. 41 x 41 is equivalent to 41 41 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 41 × 40 = 1640

So, if the divisor is 41 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 1640.
