Let us assume the unknown number to be = x
Now let us get down to forming the equation
2x - 8 = x + 20
2x - x = 20 + 8
x = 28
The unknown number in the question is 28. I hope that this is the answer you were looking for and it has come to your help. The correct option is option "A".

Let the number be x.   If it is doubled = 2x.

8 less than a number doubled :           2x - 8

20 more than the number:      x + 20

2x - 8 = x + 20

2x - x = 20 + 8

x = 28 
  
The number is 28.  A.

Yuri [45]
The steps to finding the upper and lower quartiles are given in the first choice.

1.  Order the data from least to greatest. If you don't do this, the data is random.

2.  Find the median - you will do this so that you can find the midpoint of the data set (half of of the data is smaller and half of the data is larger).

3.  Find the lower quartile - this is the half of the lower half of numbers; think of it as breaking the lower half of the data into 2 sections. 

4.  Find the upper quartile - this is the half of the greater half of numbers; this will break the upper half of the data into 2 sections.
