What value divided by 17 equals 61?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 61?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 61 = 1037

To prove this, let's compute 1037 divided by 17: 1037 17 = 61

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 61 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 61

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 61
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 61 = 1037

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 61, the dividend is 1037.
