Division of two quantities is expressed as the quotient of those two quantities.

The word quotient is derived from the Latin language. It is from the Latin word "quotiens" which means "how many times." A quotient is the answer to a divisional problem. A divisional problem describes how many times a number will go into another. The first time that this word was known to have been used in mathematics was around 1400 - 1500 AD in England.

There are two different ways to find the quotient of two numbers. One of them is through Fractions. The quotient of a fraction is the number obtained when the fraction is simplified. The other way to find a quotient is by employing the long division method where the quotient value is positioned above the divisor and dividend.

Answer: $(4.0845,\ 6.5755)$

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given , we have

n = 11

$\overline{x}=5.33\\\\ s=1.33$

Since population standard deviation is missing, so we use t-test.

Critical t-value for 99% confidence :

$t_{\alpha/2,\ n-1}=3.106$ [using two-tailed t-value table]

Confidence interval :

$\overline{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\= 5.33\pm (3.1060)\dfrac{1.33}{\sqrt{11}}\\\\\approx5.33\pm1.2455\\\\=(5.33-1.2455,\ 5.33+1.2455)\\\\=(4.0845,\ 6.5755)$

Hence, 99% confidence interval for the mean amount of time that students spend in the shower each day.= $(4.0845,\ 6.5755)$
