What value divided by 58 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 58 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 58 × 40 = 2320

To prove this, let's compute 2320 divided by 58: 2320 58 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 58 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 58 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 58: 58 x 58 = 58 × 40
  2. 58 x 58 is equivalent to 58 58 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 58 × 40 = 2320

So, if the divisor is 58 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 2320.
