Question

Seven less than the quotient of nineteen and a number

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number is n. We need to write an expression for "seven less than the quotient of nineteen and a number"

The quotient of nineteen and a number is $\dfrac{19}{n}$ and 7 less than this is $\dfrac{19}{n}-7$

Now if n = 2, put the value of n in above expression,

$\dfrac{19}{n}-7=\dfrac{19}{2}-7\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\=2.5$

So, the value of the above expression is 2.5 at n = 2.
