What value divided by 17 equals 10?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 10?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 10 = 170

To prove this, let's compute 170 divided by 17: 170 17 = 10

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 10 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 10

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 10
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 10 = 170

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 10, the dividend is 170.
