The quotient rule is a calculus technique for determining the derivative or differentiation of a function that is represented as a division or ratio of two differentiable functions.
Therefore, we can apply the quotient method to get the derivative of a function of the form f(x)/g(x), where f(x) and g(x) are both differentiable functions and g(x) ≠ 0. The quotient rule immediately follows the product rule and the notion of limits of derivation in differentiation.
