What value divided by 32 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 32 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 32 × 17 = 544

To prove this, let's compute 544 divided by 32: 544 32 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 32 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 32 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 32: 32 x 32 = 32 × 17
  2. 32 x 32 is equivalent to 32 32 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 32 × 17 = 544

So, if the divisor is 32 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 544.
