What is x when 80 divided by x equals 26?

To find the answer, just divide the dividend by the quotient: 80 ÷ 26 = 3.0769230769231

To prove this, let's compute 80 divided by 3.0769230769231: $\frac{80}{3.0769230769231} = 26$

How does it work?

Asking what the value of x could be when 80 divided by x gives a result of 26, is equivalent to solving the following equation:

$\frac{80}{x} = 26$

Multiply both sides by x: $\frac{80 x}{x} = 26 x$
$\frac{80 x}{x}$ is equivalent to $\frac{x}{x} \times 80$ , which simplifies to $1 \times 80$ (or just $80$ ).
Thus, the equation becomes: $80 = 26 x$
To find x, divide both sides by 26: $\frac{80}{26} = \frac{26 x}{26}$
Which gives, after simplification: $3.0769230769231 = x$ (or $x = 3.0769230769231$ )

So, if the dividend is 80 and the quotient is 26, the divisor is 3.0769230769231.
