What value divided by 80 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 80 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 80 × 40 = 3200

To prove this, let's compute 3200 divided by 80: 3200 80 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 80 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 80 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 80: 80 x 80 = 80 × 40
  2. 80 x 80 is equivalent to 80 80 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 80 × 40 = 3200

So, if the divisor is 80 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 3200.
