Answer: StartFraction n Over 4 EndFraction minus 9 + 3

n/4-9 +3

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given.

The quotient of a number means the result of the division of 2 numbers.

In this case the numbers are: a number (n) and 4 . n/4

Nine less than that quotient means we have to subtract 9 to the quotient.

n/4-9

Increase by three: we simply have to add 3

n/4-9 +3

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
