What value divided by 39 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 39 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 39 × 17 = 663

To prove this, let's compute 663 divided by 39: 663 39 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 39 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 39 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 39: 39 x 39 = 39 × 17
  2. 39 x 39 is equivalent to 39 39 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 39 × 17 = 663

So, if the divisor is 39 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 663.
