What value divided by 17 equals 52?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 52?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 52 = 884

To prove this, let's compute 884 divided by 17: 884 17 = 52

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 52 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 52

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 52
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 52 = 884

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 52, the dividend is 884.
