The sum of the quotient of a number and 3 and 4 is 6. Write equation and solve

I am in the 5th grade and I am having trouble with this topic.

This problem could be interpreted different ways depending on the way you interpret the wording. This is poorly worded. The "and's" are very ambiguous. Commas would be incredibly helpful here. You can't see clearly how to group the numbers together. Your teacher (or textbook) didn't give you a good question, in my opinion.
