What value divided by 58 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 58 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 58 × 17 = 986

To prove this, let's compute 986 divided by 58: 986 58 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 58 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 58 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 58: 58 x 58 = 58 × 17
  2. 58 x 58 is equivalent to 58 58 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 58 × 17 = 986

So, if the divisor is 58 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 986.
