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)
You could mean y/4 - 3, or you could possibly mean 4/y - 3. It is somewhat ambiguous which quotient you mean.
Every number is divisible by 4. A number less than 4 gives a quotient less than 1 when divided by 4. A number greater than 4 gives a quotient greater than 1 when divided by 4. 4 divided by 4 = 1.

24/6 = 4 and 24/4 = 6, therefore 24 divided by 4 is the bigger quotient.
1-n/4=2
6 less than the quotient of 36 and 4? this means that 36 divided by 4 =9 now 6 less then 9 is 9-6 =3 so your answer = 3
You could mean y/4 - 3, or you could possibly mean 4/y - 3. It is somewhat ambiguous which quotient you mean.
It is greater as for example 3/4 divided by 1/4 is equal to 3
The quotient will be less. 1/2 ÷ 2 = 1/4
Every number is divisible by 4. A number less than 4 gives a quotient less than 1 when divided by 4. A number greater than 4 gives a quotient greater than 1 when divided by 4. 4 divided by 4 = 1.

x/y - 4 = 2
Twenty-one over six.

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.
