if 16 divided by 2 is 8
myVar = 16 / 2; // assigned 8
then 66 divided by ? is 2
var quotient = 66 / ?;
Hi there @ateah8.
Quotient refers to the number/answer you recieve after you divide one number by another.
Example…
20 / 10 = 2. (In this example, the quotient is the number 2.
In this case, you need to find a number to divide 66 by, that will return an answer or quotient of 2. Hope this helps!
Hi, sorry if I am misinterpreting your question, however you could do 66 / (66/2)
Does this help?
This answer would be incorrect @Hobbo
EDIT: Ah, this answer actually passes in the task (I wouldn’t expect it to, due to the test usually being very strict. My mistake!)
quotient = outcome
so if we have 66 we must divide it by half
so 66/2 = 33
then 33 is your answere
