To represent the statement "The quotient of 36 and 3 is j," we can write the equation as:

36 ÷ 3 = j

To solve for j, we simply perform the division:

j = 36 ÷ 3
j = 12

So, the solution for j is 12.

Given to us that:–

  • The quotient of 36 and 3 is j

To find:–

  • Write it in equation form & find J

What does the quotient mean ? It's the result of dividing one number by another one .

For this scenario , we divide 36 by 3 :
\sf{36 / 3

Next , this equals to j :
\sf{36/3=j}

To solve for j , simplify the LHS :
\sf{12 = j}

Henceforth, J = 12
