Divide 40 by the sum of 3 and 5

40/(3+5) = 40/8 = ...

40/(3+5) = 40/8 = ...

therefore 3+5=8

40 divide by 8=5

To divide 40 by the sum of 3 and 5, you need to calculate the sum of 3 and 5 first.

Step 1: Find the sum of 3 and 5: 3 + 5 = 8

Step 2: Divide 40 by 8: 40 ÷ 8 = 5

Therefore, 40 divided by the sum of 3 and 5 equals 5.
