How do you write the following as an algebraic expression using x as the variable: A number of apples divided into 12 baskets ?

Answer 1

#x/12#

Let #x# be the number of apples since the question did not define the number of apples as a constant, we shall make the number of apples the variable.

When the number of apples is #x#,

#x/12# is the expression for the number of apples divided into #12# baskets.
