What is 3 less than the quotient of a number and 5?
The problem is incomplete as you wrote it. There needs to be a part in the problem where they tell you what 3 less than the quotient of number and 5 is equal to.The question as you wrote it is expressed as:(x/5)-3To solve for "x" you need to know what the equation is equal to.Example :If 3 less than the quotient of number and 5 is equal to (for example) 10, the equation will be expressed as:(x/5)-3= 10Adding 3 to each side of the equal sign produces x/5 = 13To get the "x" by-itself, you need to multiply both side of the equal sign by 5.(x/5)(5)=13(5)x = 65

Why is the quotient of of two fractions always greater than either fractions?
That is simply not true. For example, consider the quotient of 2/9 and 2/3.(2/9) / (2/3) = (2*3)/(9*2) = 3/9 = 1/3 which, unless I am very much mistaken, is not greater than one of the fractions: namely 2/3.
Will the quotient of 63 divided by 3 be greater than or less than 20?
63/3 = 21 21 - 20 = 1 Therefore, 63/3 is greater than 20.
What is 4 less than the quotient of 3?
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)

What is the math expression 3 less than the quotient of a number y and 4?
You could mean y/4 - 3, or you could possibly mean 4/y - 3. It is somewhat ambiguous which quotient you mean.
