QUOTIENT 
Returns the integer part of a division operation. 
This function is only available if Analysis AddIn is installed.

Syntax
QUOTIENT(Numerator;Denominator)
Returns the integer part of numerator divided by denominator.
QUOTIENT is equivalent to INT(numerator/denominator),
except that it may report errors with different error codes.

Example
=QUOTIENT(11;3) returns 3. The remainder of 2 is lost.

=====
Facts
=====
1. Without additionally installing Analysis AddIn, this function is available. 

2. QUOTIENT seems NOT equivalent to INT(numerator/denominator). 
The following table - attachment file - shows the differences between them.
