If you are doing division, you should be able to turn the equation around as a fact family, making it multiplication. All you need to do is 17x73=y.
y=1241
Let the initial population = P
increase in population = 35%
35% of P = 35/100 P = 0.35P
P + 0.35P = 91800
1.35P = 91800
P = 91800/1.35
P = 68,000
Previous population was 68,000
