Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\frac{n}{3}-8=18[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Eight less than the quotient of a number and 3 is 18.

Let the unknown number be 'n'

the quotient of a number and 3. For quotient we divide by 3

[tex]\frac{n}{3}[/tex]

Eight less than the quotient of a number and 3

For eight less , we subtract 8 from the division

[tex]\frac{n}{3}-8[/tex]

The above expression is equal to 18

Eight less than the quotient of a number and 3 is 18.

[tex]\frac{n}{3}-8=18[/tex]
