Question

translate the sentence into an equation.
two more than the quotient of a number and 6 is equal to 4.
use the variable x for the unknown number.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the quotient

The quotient of a number \( x \) and 6 is \( \frac{x}{6} \).

Step2: Add two to the quotient

Two more than the quotient means \( \frac{x}{6}+2 \).

Step3: Set equal to 4

The expression is equal to 4, so the equation is \( \frac{x}{6}+2 = 4 \).

Answer:

\(\frac{x}{6} + 2 = 4\)
