What value divided by 17 equals 73?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 73?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 73 = 1241

To prove this, let's compute 1241 divided by 17: 1241 17 = 73

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 73 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 73

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 73
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 73 = 1241

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 73, the dividend is 1241.
