What value divided by 62 equals 17?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 62 and the quotient 17?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 62 × 17 = 1054
To prove this, let's compute 1054 divided by 62:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 62 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 62:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 62 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 1054.
