What value divided by 17 equals 43?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 43?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 43 = 731

To prove this, let's compute 731 divided by 17: 731 17 = 43

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 43 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 43

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 43
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 43 = 731

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 43, the dividend is 731.
