Question

15 plus the quotient of 60 and w

Answer 1

`15+60:w=15+(60)/(w)`

Answer 2

The expression is numerically given by:

`15+(60)/(w)`

Explanation:

We are asked to represent the given word problem numerically or mathematically.

The expression in words is given by:

15 plus the quotient of 60 and w.

We know that the quotient is the quantity which is obtained when a number is divided by some number.

i.e. if a number p is divided by some p' then we obtain the quotient as:

p=qp'+r

where q is the quotient and r is the remainder which is zero when the number is completely divisible.

Hence, quotient of 60 and w is:

`(60)/(w)`

and 15 plus the quotient of 60 and w is given by:

`15+(60)/(w)`
