The quotient of 40 and the difference of the number y and 16, when y=20, is 10.
To find the quotient of 40 and the difference of a number y and 16, when
y=20, you can substitute y=20 into the expression and then simplify:
40/y−16
Substitute y=20:
40/20−16
Now, simplify the expression:
40/4
Which equals 10.
Therefore, the quotient of 40 and the difference of the number y and 16, when y=20, is 10.
