Continetal Divide
The imaginary line that divides rivers flowing into the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans is called the Continental Divide. It runs along the mountain ranges through North and South America, determining the direction in which water flows towards either ocean.
The Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean is divided by the Great Divide. The continental divide is an imaginary drainage line.

The equator passes over three large oceans: the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Indian Ocean. It is the imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere.
With the Mississippi River flowing into the Gulf of Mexico and all eastern rivers flowing directly into the Atlantic, the answer is Atlantic. The Atlantic wins by a slim margin! More rivers in the United States flow into the Atlantic Ocean.The answers is the Atlantic Ocean.
Yes. The only way to get from the North Atlantic to the North Pacific without the Panama Canal is the Arctic Ocean.
Continental divides are geographical boundaries that separate the watersheds of different continents. Notable examples include the Great Divide in North America, which separates waters flowing to the Pacific Ocean from those flowing to the Atlantic Ocean, and the Continental Divide in South America, which primarily separates waters flowing to the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Other significant divides include the Divide that separates the drainage basins of the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans in North America and the European Watershed in Europe, which separates rivers flowing into the North Sea from those flowing into the Black Sea.
The Pacific and Atlantic oceans are often sub-divided into the North and South Atlantic and North and South Pacific. The Indian, Antarctic (or Southern) and Arctic are the others, although you may want to include the Arctic in the North Atlantic.
They are separated by imaginary lines called the Prime Meridian and the 180th Meridian (the International Date Line approximately follows this meridian). Since only a small part of Europe is west of the Prime Meridian and even less of Asia is east of the 180th, they are effectively divided by the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
