$(\frac{x}{- 5}) + 1 \leq 7$ $(x/-5)+1 <=7$

Explanation:

A quotient is the answer of a division.

Let $x$ $x$ be the unknown number.
The quotient of $x$ $x$ and $- 5$ $-5$ is $(\frac{x}{- 5})$ $(x/-5)$ .
"Increased by one" means add $1$ $1$ , so now we have $(\frac{x}{- 5}) + 1$ $(x/-5)+1$ .

This answer is "at most 7", in other words, less than or equal to 7.
