Question

Four more than twice a number is 8

Answer 1

Lets say the number equals x

Four more than twice a number is 8

4 more than twice a number is 8    

4 more than twice x is 8        (twice means 2 times)

4 more than 2x is 8               (more than means to add)

2x + 4 is 8

2x + 4 = 8

2x = 8 - 4

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2

Answer 2

Four more than twice a number…..the root of this problem is 2. Twice 2 is 2x2 = 4 and then four more that number is 4 + 4 = 8.

Hope this helps. :)
