Answer 2

Answer:  The required number is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the quotient of a number and 6 minus 3 is 1.

We are to translate and solve the given equation.

Let the number be represented by x.

Then, the given information can be translated and solved as follows :

$\dfrac{x}{6}-3=1\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{6}=1+3\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{6}=4\\\\\Rightarrow x=6\times4\\\\\Rightarrow x=24.$

Thus, the required number is 24.
