Question

How do you find the quotient of a number and 4 is 6?

Answer 1

The number is either `24` or `2/3`

Explanation:

Let the number be designated by `n`

quotient: number obtained by division (definition)

"quotient of a number and 4" `harr color(red)(n/4) or color(blue)(4/n)`

"quotient of a number and 4 is 6"
`harr color(red)(n/4=6) or color(blue)(4/n=6)`

`color(red)(n=24) or color(blue)( n=4/6=2/3)`
