First, to find the quotient, you will need to divide. Let n be the number that you want to find. You can translate directly from the description.
The quotient of a number and seven n%2F7 is (=) two (2).
n%2F7+=+2 This is the equation. Multiply both sides by 7.
n+=+2%287%29
n+=+14 and this is the solution.
