~Kelly Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
The quotient is the answer to a division problem. So saying the quotient of a number and 14 is the same as saying "a number divided by 14 is". So what number if you divide by 14 equals 8? Hint: If you multiply the divisor by the answer, you get the number you started with.
