What value divided by 17 equals 57?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 57?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 57 = 969

To prove this, let's compute 969 divided by 17: 969 17 = 57

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 57 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 57

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 57
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 57 = 969

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 57, the dividend is 969.
