in 15 and 16, use the expression $1 + \frac{z}{3} + 2w$.

1. which part of the expression is a quotient?

describe its parts.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Quotient Definition

A quotient is the result of division. In the expression \(1 + \frac{z}{3}+ 2w\), identify division - related terms.

Step2: Analyze Each Term

• The term \(1\) is a constant (no division).
• The term \(\frac{z}{3}\) represents \(z\) divided by \(3\) (since \(\frac{z}{3}=z\div3\)).
• The term \(2w\) is a product (multiplication of \(2\) and \(w\)).

So, the quotient - part is \(\frac{z}{3}\), where \(z\) is the dividend (the number being divided) and \(3\) is the divisor (the number doing the dividing).

Answer:

The part of the expression that is a quotient is \(\frac{z}{3}\). In \(\frac{z}{3}\), \(z\) is the dividend (the quantity being divided) and \(3\) is the divisor (the quantity by which we divide).
