26 times what equals 75?

26 times what equals 75? In other words, what do you multiply by 26 to get 75? If "x" is "what" in the sentence, "26 times what equals 75?", then the equation to solve the problem is as follows:

26 • x = 75

Which can be written as:

26x = 75

To solve the equation above, we need to remove the 26 on the left side to make the x alone. To do that, we divide both sides by 26.

26x/26 = 75/26

26x/26 is x and 75/26 is 2.8846 which means our equation will look like this:

x = 2.8846

Thus, the answer to "26 times what equals 75?" is 2.8846.

To double-check our work, multiply 2.8846 by 26 to see that it equals 75. (Note that our answer on this page is rounded to 4 digits if necessary.)
