Answer:

Hi! The answer would be A.

Step-by-step explanation:

8 less than shows us that the number 8 will be subtracted from another number. Not the one being subtracted from. So then we know it's not C.

The quotient of 5 and a number shows us that 5 will be the numerator and the 'number' will be the denomintor.

That means the answer will be 5n-8.

Hope this helps! :)

Btw I also took the K12 quiz just now.

The expression that can be used to represent the phrase is 5 / n - 8

The term less means to subtract. For example,  8 less 2 means 2 subtracted from 8. This is the same as 8 - 2 = 6

The term quotient means division. It means to divide a number by another number. For example, the quotient of 8 and 2 means 8 to divide by 2. This is the same as 8 /2 = 4

From this question, let n represent the number, the information given in this question can be represented with this expression:

the quotient of 5 and a number can be expressed as 5 / n

8 less than the value of the quotient is 5/n - 8
