Five less than one times the quotient of a number and 6 is equal to 7 less than four times a number

Question

Need help trying to figure this out with a my Sibbling

Answer 1

the part about "one times" something is fairly useless because multiplication by one never gives an answer any different from what you begin with.

 

Quotient of a number & 6 can be represented as n/6

 

n/6 - 5 = 4n - 7  is equivalent to the sentence that you have submitted
