Help with my Math homework.

I need a bit of help with my math homework( I don’t want the answer I just need some help)

It says to Write the verbal phrase of … and one of the questions is Quotient of a number and five.

When they say quotient which number comes first. The first number or the second number.

Answer #1

Wow, I don’t know. If nothing else, this shows how trying to verbalize a math problem is NOT as clear as writing it out in the formal structure of mathematics.

Sorry I can’t help you. Hopefully someone else can.

Answer #2

Answer #3
