What value divided by 11 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 11 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 11 × 17 = 187

To prove this, let's compute 187 divided by 11: 187 11 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 11 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 11 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 11: 11 x 11 = 11 × 17
  2. 11 x 11 is equivalent to 11 11 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 11 × 17 = 187

So, if the divisor is 11 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 187.
