Quotient is basically the answer you get when you divide two numbers. For example, the quotient of 6 and 3 is 2 because when I divide 6 by 3, I get 2.

Quotient of a number x and 12 = $\frac{x}{12}$

7 less than quotient of a number x and 12 = $\frac{x}{12} - 7$

5 times the number = 5*x = 5x

Hence, the equation is;

$\frac{x}{12} - 7 = 5x$

$\frac{x-(7*12)}{12} = 5x$

x-84 = 5x*12
