    the difference of 4 and the quotient of 18 and a number

    The phrase a number means an arbitrary variable, let's call it x.

    The quotient of 18 and a number means we divide 18 by the variable x.
    18/x

    The difference of 4 and the quotient above means we subtract 18/x from 4:
    4 - 18/x
