Answer:

Let X be the number.

Twice the number would be 2x

The difference between the two, would be subtraction, so you would subtract 4 from 2x


The equation becomes 2x-4 = 16


Now solve for x:

2x-4 = 16

Add 4 to each side:

2x = 20

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 20/2

x = 10


The number is 10.
