To represent the statement "The quotient of 36 and 3 is [tex]$j$[/tex]", you would write the equation as:
[tex]\[
\frac{36}{3} = j
\][/tex]
Now, solving for [tex]$j$[/tex]:
The quotient of 36 and 3 is 12.0.
[tex]\[
j = 12.0
\][/tex]
Therefore, the value of [tex]$j$[/tex] is:
[tex]\[
j = 12.0
\][/tex]
