Answer:


(-8)/(x+3)

Explanation:

We need to find an algebraic expression for the given statement i.e. "the quotient of negative eight and the sum of a number and three".

Let the number be x. Quotient means to divide. It means we need to divide -8 and the sum of x and 3.

So, we can write it as follows :


(-8)/(x+3)

Hence, this is the required solution.
