Answer: The required number is 24.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the quotient of a number and 6 minus 3 is 1.

We are to translate and solve the given equation.

Let the number be represented by x.

Then, the given information can be translated and solved as follows :

$(x)/(6)-3=1\\\\\\\Rightarrow (x)/(6)=1+3\\\\\\\Rightarrow (x)/(6)=4\\\\\Rightarrow x=6*4\\\\\Rightarrow x=24.$

Thus, the required number is 24.
