1. write an algebraic expression for the word phrase: the quotient of r and 12.

What does "quotient" mean?

Ok I'm not going to give the answers but I'm going to help u out. So when u see the word quotient it means division. Hopefully it helps

Soo B ?

To write an algebraic expression for the word phrase "the quotient of r and 12," we need to understand what the word "quotient" means. Quotient refers to the result of dividing one number by another.

In this case, we are dividing the number "r" by "12." To represent division in algebra, we use the forward slash ("/").

So, the correct algebraic expression for the given word phrase is option B: r/12.

Option A (r * 12) represents the product of r and 12, not the quotient.
Option C (r - 12) represents the subtraction of 12 from r, not the quotient.
Option D (r + 12) represents the addition of 12 to r, not the quotient.
