What value divided by 17 equals 46?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 46?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 46 = 782

To prove this, let's compute 782 divided by 17: 782 17 = 46

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 46 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 46

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 46
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 46 = 782

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 46, the dividend is 782.
