Question

Four subtracted from twice a number is two. what is the number

Answer 1

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

      First, we will write a mathematical equation for the phrase given.

-> Let n be "a number"

             four subtracted from twice a number is two

             four subtracted from twice a number = 2

             (twice a number) - 4 = 2

             2n - 4 = 2

      Now, we will solve this equation by isolating the variable.

             2n - 4 = 2

             2n = 6

             n = 3
