Question

Which expression and value represents 9 less than the quotient of 18 and 3? 9 – (18 ÷ 3); –3 9 – (18 ÷ 3); 3 (18 ÷ 3) – 9; –3 (18 ÷ 3) – 9; 3

Answer 1

Answer = (18 ÷ 3) - 9 = 6 - 9 = -3

The quotient of 18 and 3 would be 6. It says "9 less than the quotient of 18 and 3" which means 9 less than 6.

So therefore, the answer would be (18 ÷ 3) - 9

6 - 9

-3
