Question

How do you write the phrase "The quotient of 37 and the product of a number and 25." as a variable expression?

Answer 1

`37 div 25x` or it can be written as `37/(25x)`

Explanation:

A quotient is the answer to a division and a product is the answer to a multiplication.

The word "AND" will usually tell you which numbers are being multiplied or divided.

Let's call the number `x`.

'The product of a number and `25`' is `x xx 25 = 25x`

The 'quotient of 37 and the product above' is:

`37 div 25x` or it can be written as `37/(25x)`
