What value divided by 54 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 54 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 54 × 40 = 2160

To prove this, let's compute 2160 divided by 54: 2160 54 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 54 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 54 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 54: 54 x 54 = 54 × 40
  2. 54 x 54 is equivalent to 54 54 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 54 × 40 = 2160

So, if the divisor is 54 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 2160.
