We are to translate into an equation

Eight more than the quotient of a number and 3 is equal to 4.

Let the number be w

Hence, quotient of w and 3 is

[tex]\frac{w}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, eight more than the quotient of a number and 3 is equal to 4

Is given as

[tex]\frac{w}{3}+8=4[/tex]

Solving for w

we have

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{w}{3}=4-8 \\ \frac{w}{3}=-4 \\ w=-12 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefpore, the equation is

[tex]\frac{w}{3}+8=4[/tex]
