What is x when 62 divided by x equals 26?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 62 ÷ 26 = 2.3846153846154

To prove this, let's compute 62 divided by 2.3846153846154: $\frac{62}{2.3846153846154} = 26$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 62 divided by x gives a result of 26, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{62}{x} = 26$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{62 x}{x} = 26 x$
$\frac{62 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 62$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 62$ (or just $62$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $62 = 26 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 26: $\frac{62}{26} = \frac{26 x}{26}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2.3846153846154 = x$ (or $x = 2.3846153846154$ )

So, if the dividend is 62 and the quotient is 26, the divisor is 2.3846153846154.
