Question

The quotient of 2 times a number and 8

Answer 1

(2*x)/8 is the answer

Answer 2

The quotient of 2 times a number and 8 is
`(x)/(4)`.

Explanation:

Let the given number be x.

We need to find the quotient of 2 times a number and 8.

2 times of a number = 2x

The quotient of 2 times a number and 8 is

`(2x)/(8)`

Cancel out the common factors.

`(2x)/(8)=(x)/(4)`

Therefore the quotient of 2 times a number and 8 is
`(x)/(4)`.
