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.
The quotient will be less than one.
