On this DP problem, a Narrowing SCC transformation can be performed.
As a result of transforming the rule

QUOT(s(x), s(y)) -> QUOT(minus(x, y), s(y))

three new Dependency Pairs are created:

QUOT(s(x''), s(0)) -> QUOT(x'', s(0))
QUOT(s(s(x'')), s(s(y''))) -> QUOT(minus(x'', y''), s(s(y'')))
QUOT(s(minus(x'', y'')), s(y0)) -> QUOT(minus(x'', plus(y'', y0)), s(y0))

The transformation is resulting in one new DP problem:
