What value divided by 88 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 88 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 88 × 17 = 1496

To prove this, let's compute 1496 divided by 88: 1496 88 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 88 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 88 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 88: 88 x 88 = 88 × 17
  2. 88 x 88 is equivalent to 88 88 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 88 × 17 = 1496

So, if the divisor is 88 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 1496.
