Answer:

Let x be the unknown number. The quotient of a number and six can be expressed as x / 6. Since the quotient is sixteen, we can set up the following equation:

Equation: x / 6 = 16

Solving the equation:

Multiply both sides by 6:

x = 16 * 6

x = 96

Checking the answer:

Substitute x = 96 back into the original equation:

(96) / 6 = 16

16 = 16 (This confirms that our answer is correct.)

Therefore, the correct equation is x / 6 = 16, and the solution is x = 96.
