The quotient of a number x and -3 is equal to 29 what is the number?

Let's rewrite the question.

The quotient of a number x and -3 (x / -3) is equal to (=) 29 (29).

Now rewrite what's in parenthesis.

x / -3 = 29.

Our first priority is to get x by itself.

Since we are dividing by -3, we need to multiply by -3 to cancel out the fraction.
Remember, what you do to one side of the equation, you must do to the other side (unless you are distributing).

-3(x / -3) = x
-3(29) = -87

x = -87 is your final and simplified equation.

Your number is -87.

I hope this helps!
