What value divided by 26 equals 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 26 × 17 = 442

To prove this, let's compute 442 divided by 26: $\frac{442}{26} = 17$

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 26 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{x}{26} = 17$

We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 26: $\frac{26 x}{26} = 26 \times 17$
$\frac{26 x}{26}$ is equivalent to $\frac{26}{26} x$ , which simplifies to $1 x$ (or just $x$ ).
Thus: $x = 26 \times 17 = 442$

So, if the divisor is 26 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 442.
