What value divided by 17 equals 33?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 33?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 33 = 561

To prove this, let's compute 561 divided by 17: 561 17 = 33

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 33 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 33

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 33
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 33 = 561

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 33, the dividend is 561.
