What value divided by 81 equals 27?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 81 and the quotient 27?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 81 × 27 = 2187

To prove this, let's compute 2187 divided by 81: 2187 81 = 27

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 81 gives a result of 27 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 81 = 27

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 81: 81 x 81 = 81 × 27
  2. 81 x 81 is equivalent to 81 81 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 81 × 27 = 2187

So, if the divisor is 81 and the quotient is 27, the dividend is 2187.
