Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the "number".
First, the quotient of two quantities means the division between them. Questions tells us to "ADD 6" to the "Quotient of a number and 3". So let the number be "x". Hence, quotient of x and 3 is:
x/3
Then we add 6 to it, so it becomes:
(x/3) + 6
THis is equal to 14, so we will have:
(x/3) + 6 = 14
Doing cross-multiplication and algebra, we now can solve for the unknown number (x). Shown below:
[tex]\frac{x}{3}+6=14\\\frac{x}{3}=8\\x=3*8\\x=24[/tex]
The number is 24
