What value divided by 43 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 43 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 43 × 17 = 731

To prove this, let's compute 731 divided by 43: 731 43 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 43 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 43 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 43: 43 x 43 = 43 × 17
  2. 43 x 43 is equivalent to 43 43 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 43 × 17 = 731

So, if the divisor is 43 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 731.
