The quotient is produced through the division of two numbers. For most people, multiplying is easier than dividing, so think of it like this.
The quotient of a number and five is eight, right?
Well, you multiply. You know that 5*8=40, right?
This must mean that if you take 40/5, you get 8. Or, if you take 40/8, you get 5.
Your answer is indeed 40
