Answer:

4/x - 1

Explanation:

This expression would be written as 4/x - 1.

When we write expressions of sentences like this, we need to separate out the different terms. Remember than 12 less than would come after, since it is subtraction.

quotient of 4 and a number x ............... 1 less than

(4/x) ......... - 1

Put that together
