x/(10-5) = 3
x/5 = 3
x = 3*5 = 15

n/16 - 3
x/3 - 9 = 18 x = 81
3/10 = 0.3
A quotient is the number of times a lesser number can go into a larger number. Therefore, 24 / 3 = 8 (giving 8 as the quotient).
n/5 - 10 = 3
x/(10-5) = 3 x/5 = 3 x = 3*5 = 15
The quotient of a number and 3 decreased by 5 is almost 10". Match the statement with the inequality. 2/3-5 greater than equal to 10 3x-5 less than equal to 10 x/3 -5 less than equal to 10 3x-5 greater than 10

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)

If you think about it, it makes sense. when you divide a whole number (call that number X) by any number less than it(call that Z), the quotient (answer) is smaller than the first number. For example, 10/2=5, 12/4=3. Also, the lower the Z number is (ignoring if it were 1), the higher the quotient is. Therefore, since fractions are lower than 0, the quotient will be higher than the X number.
