Answer: The required value is 8.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

three less than the quotient of ten and a number, increased by six”

Let the number be 'n'.

So, quotient of ten and a number is given by


(10)/(n)

Three less than the quotient is given by


(10)/(n)-3

Increased by 6 is given by


(10)/(n)-3+6\\\\=(10)/(n)+3

If n =2, we get that


(10)/(2)+3\\\\=5+3\\\\=8

Hence, the required value is 8.
