Answer:

Expression:

[tex]\dfrac{y}{4}-3[/tex]

Value where y = 20

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take a look at the sentence:

3 less than the quotient of y and 4

3 less indicates that you will subtract

   - 3

Quotient means the result of division.

[tex]\dfrac{y}{4}[/tex]

So if we combine the two, it says 3 less than the quotient so we subtract 3 from the quotient:

[tex]\dfrac{y}{4}-3[/tex]

So if y = 20, we just substitute the y with 20

[tex]\dfrac{y}{4}-3[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{20}{4}-3[/tex]

[tex]5-3=2[/tex]

The expression of “3 less than the quotient of y and 4” is y/4 - 3 .

When y = 20, the value of the expression is 2.

What is a quotient?

A quotient is used to refer to the result obtained when two numbers are divided.

Therefore, the expression of “3 less than the quotient of y and 4” is as follows:

  • y/4 - 3

when y = 20, the expression is as follows:

20 / 4 - 3

5 - 3 = 2
