Answer:

This number would be straight out zero .

Explanation:

First it said the quotient of fifty and five MORE than a number is 10, so we first need to focus on the line five MORE than a number is 10, so we know this number is less than the value used in the equation then we focus on the quotient of fifty and, So we know this unknown number lets just say the variable for it is n, then we know that fifty/ n+5=10. So Lets use the associative property to turn this into and some algebra to fifty/10 = n+5, so 50/10 equals to 5, so we know that, 5= n+5, so that would be... n = 0. Hope this helps you answer your question! :)
