What value divided by 17 equals 37?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 37?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 37 = 629

To prove this, let's compute 629 divided by 17: 629 17 = 37

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 37 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 37

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 37
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 37 = 629

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 37, the dividend is 629.
