Question

The quotient of a number and 8 is 4

Answer 1

x=32

xStep-by-step explanation:

Quotient is the result of dividing. x/8=4, x=32

You multiply both sides by 8: (8)*x/8=4*8

The 8's on the left cancel out and you are left with x.

The right side is 32.

Therefore x=32.

Answer 2

n (the number) = 32

Explanation:

n/8= 4(on a worksheet or test, n/8 will be written as a fraction)

Step 1: Multiply the given numbers( 8 & 4 = 32

Step 2: Replace the variable with the new product (in this case, 32)

Therefore, the quotient of a number and 8 is 4 = 32.

This is not the PROFESSIONAL way to solve these types of problems, but 99.9% of the time, I get them right!!
