What value divided by 61 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 61 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 61 × 40 = 2440

To prove this, let's compute 2440 divided by 61: 2440 61 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 61 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 61 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 61: 61 x 61 = 61 × 40
  2. 61 x 61 is equivalent to 61 61 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 61 × 40 = 2440

So, if the divisor is 61 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 2440.
