What value divided by 26 equals 100?
In other words, what would the dividend be if the divisor were 26 and the quotient 100?
To find the answer, just multiply the divisor with the quotient: 26 × 100 = 2600
To prove this, let's compute 2600 divided by 26:
How does it work?
Asking which value divided by 26 gives a result of 100 is equivalent to solving the following equation:
- We need to isolate x, so multiply both sides by 26:
- is equivalent to , which simplifies to (or just ).
- Thus:
So, if the divisor is 26 and the quotient is 100, the dividend is 2600.
