What value divided by 30 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 30 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 30 × 17 = 510

To prove this, let's compute 510 divided by 30: 510 30 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 30 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 30 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 30: 30 x 30 = 30 × 17
  2. 30 x 30 is equivalent to 30 30 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 30 × 17 = 510

So, if the divisor is 30 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 510.
