What value divided by 37 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 37 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 37 × 17 = 629

To prove this, let's compute 629 divided by 37: 629 37 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 37 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 37 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 37: 37 x 37 = 37 × 17
  2. 37 x 37 is equivalent to 37 37 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 37 × 17 = 629

So, if the divisor is 37 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 629.
