Answer:

'The difference between six, and a number divided by four is sixteen' will be translated into an equation such as:

  • [tex]\frac{6\:-\:x}{4}=16[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'n' be the number

The difference between six and a number 'n' is written in an algebraic expression such as:

[tex]6 - x[/tex]

  • [tex]6-x[/tex] is obtained by 'subtracting, starting with 6'.

Dividing 6-x by 4 will become:

  • [tex]\frac{6\:-\:x}{4}[/tex]

so the sentence the difference between six, and a number divided by four is sixteen will become:

  • [tex]\frac{6\:-\:x}{4}=16[/tex]

Therefore, 'The difference between six, and a number divided by four is sixteen' will be translated into an equation such as:

  • [tex]\frac{6\:-\:x}{4}=16[/tex]
