What value divided by 17 equals 11?

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

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

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

How does it work?

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

x 17 = 11

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

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