Nine less than the quotient of a number and 4 is 5

Your equation would look like this:

x/4 - 9 = 5

That because the quotient signifies that you should divide, and nine less of something means that you are subtraction 9 from something.

To solve this equation, first add nine to each side:

x/4=14

Next, multiply each side by 4

x=56

To check your answer plug 56 into the equation as x-

56/4 -9 =5

14-9=5

5=5

x=56
Your equation is x/4 -9 = 5
