What is x when 70 divided by x equals 26?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 70 ÷ 26 = 2.6923076923077

To prove this, let's compute 70 divided by 2.6923076923077: $\frac{70}{2.6923076923077} = 26$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 70 divided by x gives a result of 26, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{70}{x} = 26$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{70 x}{x} = 26 x$
$\frac{70 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 70$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 70$ (or just $70$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $70 = 26 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 26: $\frac{70}{26} = \frac{26 x}{26}$
Which gives, after simplification: $2.6923076923077 = x$ (or $x = 2.6923076923077$ )

So, if the dividend is 70 and the quotient is 26, the divisor is 2.6923076923077.
