The quotient of a number and three is four. what is the number?
x=4/3
x=3/4
x=-12
x=12

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

since a number (x) is being divided by 4 the initial equation is this:

to figure out what x is you have to isolate the variable

to do this, do the opposite operation then the one orginally being done

in this case it's division (we know this because of the word quotient)

so now, you have to multiply by four on both sides to get the x by itself

it will look like this;
