The quotient of a number and 5

Step by step

The question

Question: write with math signs: the quotient of a number and 5.

1 Change words to math

2 Put it in order

The first one comes first.

Divide is written as a fraction: top over bottom.

So we get n/5.

3 Check

Let's check with a number.

Say the number is 10.

The quotient of 10 and 5 is 2.

And 10/5 is 2 too.

So n/5 is right!

Let's look back.

First: change words to math.

Then: put it in order.

Last: check.
