How does Chain Length Relate to Gearing?

Hi Guys, this is a simple question about the relation between chain length and gearing choice. Mainly, if I have a 52 x 16 gearing, would this use the same length of chain as a 40 x 28 gearing? The logic is that if you take away one tooth from the chain ring and add it to the rear cog you maintain chain length, but I may be way off.
