What value divided by 68 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 68 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 68 × 40 = 2720

To prove this, let's compute 2720 divided by 68: 2720 68 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 68 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 68 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 68: 68 x 68 = 68 × 40
  2. 68 x 68 is equivalent to 68 68 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 68 × 40 = 2720

So, if the divisor is 68 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 2720.
