Q:

What Divided by 26 Equals 52?

Accepted Solution

A:

The problem is to find a number that, when divided by 26, gives 52. This can be articulated as solving for variable 'x' in the equation $ \frac{x}{26} = 52 $. To solve for 'x', we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation. We can achieve this by multiplying both sides of the equation by 26, to derive the equation, $ x = 52*26 $. Simplifying this equation, we find that x equals 1352. Thus, the number that, when divided by 26, equals 52 is 1352. We can verify this answer by substituting 1352 for x in the original equation to find that it holds true.
