What value divided by 17 equals 54?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 54?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 54 = 918

To prove this, let's compute 918 divided by 17: 918 17 = 54

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 54 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 54

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 54
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 54 = 918

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 54, the dividend is 918.
