What value divided by 73 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 73 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 73 × 40 = 2920

To prove this, let's compute 2920 divided by 73: 2920 73 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 73 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 73 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 73: 73 x 73 = 73 × 40
  2. 73 x 73 is equivalent to 73 73 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 73 × 40 = 2920

So, if the divisor is 73 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 2920.
