Question

A student writes "the quotient of 5 and x" to describe the algebraic expression -

Answer 1

For this case we have to:

$\frac {a} {b} = c$

Where:

a: It's the Dividend

b: It is the Divider

c: Is the Quotient

Thus, the expression "the quotient of 5 and x" can be represented as:

$\frac {5} {x} = y$

Where "y" is the quotient of 5 and x.

ANswer:

$\frac {5} {x} = y$
