Answer:

-84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x. Then we have,

[tex]\frac{x}{-7}[/tex] (the quotient of a number and -7)

[tex]\frac{x}{-7}-2[/tex] (decreased by 2)

[tex]\frac{x}{-7}-2=10[/tex] (is 10)

Now we can solve for x,:

[tex]\frac{x}{-7}-2=10[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{-7}=12[/tex]

[tex]x=-84[/tex]

So, the original number is -84
