What value divided by 42 equals 27?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 42 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 42 × 27 = 1134

To prove this, let's compute 1134 divided by 42: 1134 42 = 27

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 42 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 42 = 27

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 42: 42 x 42 = 42 × 27
  2. 42 x 42 is equivalent to 42 42 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 42 × 27 = 1134

So, if the divisor is 42 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 1134.
