What value divided by 78 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 78 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 78 × 17 = 1326

To prove this, let's compute 1326 divided by 78: 1326 78 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 78 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 78 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 78: 78 x 78 = 78 × 17
  2. 78 x 78 is equivalent to 78 78 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 78 × 17 = 1326

So, if the divisor is 78 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 1326.
