Answer 1

(2*x)/8 is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

The quotient of 2 times a number and 8 is $\frac{x}{4}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the given number be x.

We need to find the quotient of 2 times a number and 8.

2 times of a number = 2x

The quotient of 2 times a number and 8 is

$\frac{2x}{8}$

Cancel out the common factors.

$\frac{2x}{8}=\frac{x}{4}$

Therefore the quotient of 2 times a number and 8 is $\frac{x}{4}$.
