[tex]\large\boxed{5\dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]n-the\ number\\\\\text{the quotient of a number and two}:\ \dfrac{n}{2}\\\\\text{the quotient of a number and two, increased by 10}:\ \dfrac{n}{2}+10\\\\\text{six less than the quotient of a number and two, increased by 10}:\\\\\left(\dfrac{n}{2}+10\right)-6\\\\\text{Put n = 3 to the expression:}\\\\\left(\dfrac{3}{2}+10\right)-6=\left(1\dfrac{1}{2}+10\right)-6=11\dfrac{1}{2}-6=5\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
