Question

Three more than the quotient of a number and 5 is equal to 7

Answer 1

3 + x/5 = 7

x/5 = 7-3 = 4

x =20

Unless you possibly meant

3 +5/x = 7

then

5/x = 4

x = 5/4

but the standard terminology of "quotient of a number and 5" would mean the number is the dividend and 5 is the divisor, so the quotient is x/5

dividend divided by the divisor = the quotient
