How do you write the algebraic expression given: the quotient of 5 plus d and 12 minus w?

1 Answer

Jun 20, 2016

quotient $= \frac{5 + d}{12 - w}$ $= color(green)((5+d)/(12-w))$

Explanation:

$The quotient of 5 plus d and 12 minus w$ $color(cyan)("The quotient of ")color(red)(5" plus "d)" and "color(blue)(12" minus "w)$

$= \frac{5 plus d}{12 minus w}$ $= (color(red)(5" plus "d))/(color(blue)(12" minus " w))$

$= \frac{5 + d}{12 minus w}$ $=(color(red)(5+d))/(color(blue)(12" minus " w))$

$= \frac{5 + d}{12 - w}$ $=(color(red)(5+d))/(color(blue)(12- w))$
