What value divided by 98 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 98 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 98 × 17 = 1666

To prove this, let's compute 1666 divided by 98: 1666 98 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 98 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 98 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 98: 98 x 98 = 98 × 17
  2. 98 x 98 is equivalent to 98 98 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 98 × 17 = 1666

So, if the divisor is 98 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 1666.
