What value divided by 17 equals 98?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 17 and the quotient 98?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 17 × 98 = 1666

To prove this, let's compute 1666 divided by 17: 1666 17 = 98

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 17 gives a result of 98 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 17 = 98

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 17: 17 x 17 = 17 × 98
  2. 17 x 17 is equivalent to 17 17 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 17 × 98 = 1666

So, if the divisor is 17 and the quotient is 98, the dividend is 1666.
