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.
When you divide a number by a fraction between zero and one, the quotient will be greater than that number.
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.
-5
greater
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.
Nine less than the quotient of two and a number ( x ) can be expressed mathematically as ( \frac{2}{x} - 9 ). This represents the result of dividing 2 by ( x ) and then subtracting 9 from that quotient.
x/3 - 9 = 18 x = 81
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.
It will be greater.
9
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.
(x/20)+9 where x is the number
The quotient will be less. 1/2 ÷ 2 = 1/4
9
