Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

n = 5


Discussion:

Let the original number be "n"  Translating the problem  statement to mathematical symbolism:

n + 4 = 19 - 2n                   =>  add 2n to both sides

n + 2n + 4 = 19 - 2n + 2n  =>  combine like terms

3n + 4 = 19                        => subtract 4 from both sides

3n = 19 -4  = 15                 => divide both sides by 3

n = 15/3 =5


Check: Does 5 +4 = 19 - 2(5)? Does 9 = 9? Yes. so the value for n is confirmed correct.


Thank you,

MrB
