Question 1105925: What is an algebraic expression for the word phrase “The quotient of 4 and the difference and 𝑥 and 2”?

The phrase makes no sense grammatically; so there is no algebraic expression for it.
"the quotient of..."
"quotient" required two inputs, so we are looking for "quotient of a and b".
"the quotient of 4 and ...""
Okay; we have the first input. But the remaining phrase "the difference and x and 2" is nonsense.
