Answer:

number is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x then the quotient of the number and - 2 is

[tex]\frac{x}{-2}[/tex] ← 7 more means add 7 and equate to 6, that is

[tex]\frac{x}{-2}[/tex] + 7  = 6 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

[tex]\frac{x}{-2}[/tex] = - 1

Multiply both sides by - 2 to clear the fraction

x = 2
