What value divided by 17 equals 81?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 81?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 81 = 1377

To prove this, let's compute 1377 divided by 17: 1377 17 = 81

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 81 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 81

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 81
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 81 = 1377

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 81, the dividend is 1377.
