What value divided by 99 equals 17?

In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 99 and the quotient 17?

To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 99 × 17 = 1683

To prove this, let's compute 1683 divided by 99: 1683 99 = 17

How does it work?

Asking which value divided by 99 gives a result of 17 is equivalent to solving the following equation:

x 99 = 17

  1. We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 99: 99 x 99 = 99 × 17
  2. 99 x 99 is equivalent to 99 99 x , which simplifies to 1 x (or just x ).
  3. Thus: x = 99 × 17 = 1683

So, if the divisor is 99 and the quotient is 17, the dividend is 1683.
