Ah, what a lovely mathematical question we have here. To find the answer, we first need to divide a number by 5 to get the quotient. Then we add 2 to that quotient to find the final result. Just like painting a happy little tree, it's all about following the steps patiently and joyfully.
If: x/8 +2 = 9 then x = 56
it = 6
x/y - 4 = 2
7 subtracted from the quotient of a number and 2 is a -6
To say that 2 is less than twice a number and four means, algebraically, that 2 < 2x + 4. This simplifies to -2 < 2x or x > -1. This is not a quotient, however, so perhaps your question was not clearly worded.
6/n + 2
2 divided by 3 + x.
(n/-2) + 10 = 3
how to write this in algebraic expression 1 more than the quotient of n and 2
10 + (n/-2) = 3 If a sentence uses "more than", it is referring to addition. If it says "the quotient of ____ and ____", then it is the first number divided by the second one. "Is" is the same as "equals".
The expression "the quotient of two and a number xxx" can be represented as 2 / xxx. Nine less than this quotient would be 2 / xxx - 9.
6/n +2
9
The quotient will be less. 1/2 ÷ 2 = 1/4
8.5 is the answer.
You need two numbers to have a quotient. It's either something and nine or nine and something. The quotient of 18 and 9 is 2. Six more than that is 8.
The quotient is the result of dividing two numbers. So 3 doesn't have a quotient unless another number is being involved in the division. The 4 is not that number since it is substracted from the quotient you get afterwards. Examples: 4 less than the quotient of 9 and 3 would be -1 (9/3=3; 3-4=-1) 4 less than the quotient of 6 and 3 would be -2 (6/3=2; 2-4 = -2)
