What value divided by 84 equals 40?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 84 and the quotient 40?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 84 × 40 = 3360

To prove this, let's compute 3360 divided by 84: 3360 84 = 40

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 84 gives a result of 40 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 84 = 40

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 84: 84 x 84 = 84 × 40
  2. 84 x 84 is equivalent to 84 84 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 84 × 40 = 3360

So, if the divisor is 84 and the quotient is 40, the dividend is 3360.
