Question

What is the value of the expression “three less than the quotient of ten and a number, increased by six” when n = 2?

Answer 1

(10/n - 3) + 6...when n = 2
(10/2 - 3) + 6 =
(5 - 3) + 6 =
2 + 6 =
8 <=

Answer 2

Answer:

The value of expression is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, the expression can be written as:

$(\frac{10}{n}-3)+6$ where n is the number.

Now, substituting the value of n=2 in the above expression, we get

=$(\frac{10}{2}-3)+6$

=$(5-3)+6$

=$(2)+6$

=$8$

Thus, the value of the given expression is 8.
