The equation would be:
( x / 4 ) + 6 = 2
or
x / 4 = -4
(Note: In the first equation, we added six to the quotient of x and 4, and set it equal to 2. In the second equation, we solved for x by subtracting 6 from both sides and then multiplying by 4.)
Translate the sentence into an equation.
Six more than the quotient of a number and 4 is equal to 2
