56 less than the quotient of a number and 4 is -52. what is the value of the unknown number?

  16

Step-by-step explanation:

The quotient of a number (x) and 4 is written x/4. 56 less than that is ...

  (x/4) -56

The problem statement tells us the value of this is -52, so we have ...

  (x/4) -56 = -52

Add 56 to both sides of this equation, and you get ...

  x/4 = 4

Multiply both sides of this equation by 4 and you get ...

  x = 16

The value of the unknown number is 16.
