What value divided by 34 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 34 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 34 × 17 = 578

To prove this, let's compute 578 divided by 34: 578 34 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 34 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 34 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 34: 34 x 34 = 34 × 17
  2. 34 x 34 is equivalent to 34 34 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 34 × 17 = 578

So, if the divisor is 34 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 578.
