A quotient is the number which is produced by the division of two numbers.
I.e. the quotient of 4 and 2 is 2 (since 4 ÷ 2 = 2)

So when x is divided by 3, the quotient is more than 7
We can make the algebraic expression:
' x / 3 ' is more than 7
x / 3 > 7

We then simplify:
x / 3 > 7
x > 21

Then answer is 'x is greater than 21'
