The quotient of -20 and a number can be written as a division or a fraction. To solve equations, it's best-written as a fraction:

[tex]-\frac{20}{x}[/tex]

Where x is 'the number', in this case, an unknown quantity

Similarly, the quotient of 4 and a number is:

[tex]\frac{4}{x}[/tex]

We're assuming it's the same number as before.

Now we have to connect them with the plus sign because we have to increase. Thus, the final expression is:

[tex]-\frac{20}{x}+\frac{4}{x}[/tex]
