Question

Which expression can be used to represent the 9 more than the quotient of 14 and 2? (14 + 2) ÷ 9 14 ÷ 2 X 9 (14 X 2) + 9 (14 ÷ 2) + 9

Answer 1

The expression that can be used to represent 9 more than the quotient of 14 and 2 is (14 ÷ 2) +9

Explanation:

The statement 9 more than the quotient of 14 and 2 means

9 + the quotient of 14 and 2.

Now, for the quotient of 14 and 2

Recall that,

Dividend ÷ Divisor = Quotient.

Here, Dividend = 14 and the Divisor is 2

Hence, the quotient of 14 and 2 can be represented by 14 ÷ 2

∴ The statement 9 more than the quotient of 14 and 2 becomes

9 + (14 ÷ 2) OR (14 ÷ 2) +9

Hence, the expression that can be used to represent 9 more than the quotient of 14 and 2 is (14 ÷ 2) +9
