Question

The sum of two and the quotient of a number xxx and five. write an equation

Answer 1

we have to write an equation

The sum of two and the quotient of a number x and five

Firstly, we will find the quotient of a number x and five

For finding quotient , we always divide

For example: if we have to find quotient of a number 10 and 2

so,

quotient is

$=\frac{10}{2}$

Similarly , we have to find

the quotient of a number x and five

so, the quotient is

$=\frac{x}{5}$

now, we need to add 2 with quotient

so, we will get equation as

$=2+\frac{x}{5}$................Answer

Answer 2

The sum of two and the quotient of a number x and five → 2 + ˣ/₅

Further explanation

Order of Operations in Mathematics follow this following rule :

1. Parentheses
2. Exponents
3. Multiplication and Division
4. Addition and Subtraction

This rule is known as the PEMDAS method.

In working on a mathematical problem, we first calculate operation that is in parentheses, follow by exponentiation, then multiplication or division, and finally addition or subtraction.

Let us tackle the problem.

$\texttt{ }$

Let's write down the word problem into mathematical equation

$\texttt{ }$

The quotient of a number x and five.

$\texttt{the quotient} = y = x \div 5$

$\texttt{ }$

The sum of two and the quotient of a number x and five.

$z = 2 + y$

$z = 2 + ( x \div 5 )$

$z = 2 + \frac{x}{5}$

Conclusion:

The sum of two and the quotient of a number x and five is

$\large { \boxed {2 + \frac{x}{5}} }$
