What value divided by 17 equals 32?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 32?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 32 = 544

To prove this, let's compute 544 divided by 17: 544 17 = 32

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 32 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 32

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 32
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 32 = 544

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 32, the dividend is 544.
