Answer:


(n)/(4)

Explanation:

Since the quotient is the result of the division of two terms, we should end up with a fraction, which represents division.

To start, we'll have to pick a letter to represent the number referenced in the question simply as "a number". I picked
n.

The quotient of
n and four would be
n divided by four. This could be written as
n ÷ 4, but I think it works better as a fraction:


(n)/(4)

Therefore, the quotient of a number and four, where the number is represented by
n is
(n)/(4).
