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.
