The code “alt="Image"” can help you type mathematical symbols such as the divide sign (“÷”) in various programs. The process of adding symbols like this is different for each operating system, but is the same for every program installed on the computer. For example, inserting a divide in Word will be the same as inserting the same symbol in Google Docs. However, the steps taken on a Windows computer will be different than on a Mac computer. This wikiHow teaches you how to type a divide sign on both Mac and Windows computers.
