To find : The quotient of the number ?

Solution :

According to question,

Ten increased by the quotient of a number and 2 is -15.

i.e. [tex]10+\frac{x}{2}=-15[/tex]

[tex]\frac{20+x}{2}=-15[/tex]

[tex]20+x=-15\times 2[/tex]

[tex]20+x=-30[/tex]

[tex]x=-30-20[/tex]

[tex]x=-50[/tex]

Therefore, The required quotient of the number is -50.
