Which value makes this statement true? the quotient of a number and five is eight. a. 4 b. 8 c. 40 d. 80 (i think the answer is 40 but i'm not sure)

The quotient is produced through the division of two numbers. For most people, multiplying is easier than dividing, so think of it like this. 

The quotient of a number and five is eight, right?
Well, you multiply. You know that 5*8=40, right?
This must mean that if you take 40/5, you get 8. Or, if you take 40/8, you get 5.

Your answer is indeed 40
