$\frac{16}{7-(x)}$
AAAaannndd the bot gets it wrong yet again!
"7 less than x" means x-7, not 7-x.

But the words are ambiguous.
Most likely: 16/(x-7)
Also possible: x - 16/7
My apologies, you are correct that "7 less than x" means x-7. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. The correct algebraic expression for the phrase "the quotient of 16 and 7 less than x" would, therefore, be 16/(x-7).
