The number you are in search of is -52.

To find this, we first have to write the equation that goes along with the sentence. For this, we need to take it one term at a time.

Negative sixteen (-16) plus (+) the quotient of a number and -4 (x/-4) is (=) -3.

Now put the parenthesis together

-16 + x/-4 = -3

Now we can solve this for x.

-16 + x/-4 = 3 ---> add 16 to both sides

x/-4 = 13 ----> multiply both sides by -4

x = -52
