What value divided by 55 equals 27?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 55 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 55 × 27 = 1485

To prove this, let's compute 1485 divided by 55: 1485 55 = 27

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 55 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 55 = 27

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 55: 55 x 55 = 55 × 27
  2. 55 x 55 is equivalent to 55 55 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 55 × 27 = 1485

So, if the divisor is 55 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 1485.
