What value divided by 48 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 48 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 48 × 17 = 816

To prove this, let's compute 816 divided by 48: 816 48 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 48 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 48 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 48: 48 x 48 = 48 × 17
  2. 48 x 48 is equivalent to 48 48 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 48 × 17 = 816

So, if the divisor is 48 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 816.
