What value divided by 53 equals 27?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 53 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 53 × 27 = 1431

To prove this, let's compute 1431 divided by 53: 1431 53 = 27

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 53 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 53 = 27

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 53: 53 x 53 = 53 × 27
  2. 53 x 53 is equivalent to 53 53 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 53 × 27 = 1431

So, if the divisor is 53 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 1431.
