X = number. 5/X - 12 ======
x/y - 4 = 2
the equation is: (n / 8 ) - 5 = 9 the number is 112. 112 / 8 is 14 5 less than 14 is 9
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.
4 >= x / 2.1

The quotient need not be greater than a whole number less than one!
When you divide a number by a fraction between zero and one, the quotient will be greater than that number.

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.
12+(16/x)
It will be greater.

The quotient is less than the fraction.
When you divide 0.34 by 10, the quotient will be less than the original number. Specifically, 0.34 divided by 10 equals 0.034, which is smaller than 0.34. Therefore, the quotient is less than the dividend.

Any number below 6 has a quotient less than 1.
