What is x when 46 divided by x equals 26?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 46 ÷ 26 = 1.7692307692308

To prove this, let's compute 46 divided by 1.7692307692308: $\frac{46}{1.7692307692308} = 26$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 46 divided by x gives a result of 26, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{46}{x} = 26$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{46 x}{x} = 26 x$
$\frac{46 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 46$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 46$ (or just $46$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $46 = 26 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 26: $\frac{46}{26} = \frac{26 x}{26}$
Which gives, after simplification: $1.7692307692308 = x$ (or $x = 1.7692307692308$ )

So, if the dividend is 46 and the quotient is 26, the divisor is 1.7692307692308.
