✳︎ First, the word "quotient" indicates that we divide.
Here, we have the quotient of a number and 5, so we divide the number by 5; let the number be d.
So the quotient of d and 5 looks as follows:-
Answer:
(c) III
Step-by-step explanation:
If you simplify the equations and the left side is identical to the right side, then there are an infinite number of solutions: the equation is true for all values of x.
Another way to simplify the equation is to subtract the right side from both sides. If that simplifies to 0 = 0, then there are an infinite number of solutions.

<h3>I. </h3>2x -6 -6x = 2 -4x . . . . eliminate parentheses
-4x -6 = -4x +2 . . . . no solutions (no value of x makes this true)
__
<h3>II.</h3>x +2 = 15x +10 +2x . . . . eliminate parentheses
x +2 = 17x +10 . . . . one solution (x=-1/2)
__
<h3>III.</h3>4 +6x = 6x +4 . . . . eliminate parentheses
6x +4 = 6x +4 . . . . infinite solutions
__
<h3>IV.</h3>6x +24 = 2x -4 . . . . eliminate parentheses; one solution (x=-7)
