Question

How do you write the algebraic expression given: the quotient of 5 plus d and 12 minus w?

Answer 1

quotient `= color(green)((5+d)/(12-w))`

Explanation:

`color(cyan)("The quotient of ")color(red)(5" plus "d)" and "color(blue)(12" minus "w)`

`= (color(red)(5" plus "d))/(color(blue)(12" minus " w))`

`=(color(red)(5+d))/(color(blue)(12" minus " w))`

`=(color(red)(5+d))/(color(blue)(12- w))`
