What value divided by 17 equals 45?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 45?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 45 = 765

To prove this, let's compute 765 divided by 17: 765 17 = 45

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 45 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 45

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 45
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 45 = 765

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 45, the dividend is 765.
