0 more than twice a number is 408

The number (x) in: "0 more than twice a number is 408" is what we are solving here.

In other words, you are looking for a number (x) that if you multiply it by two (same as twice) and then add 0, you get 408.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 0 = 408

Then you solve the equation by subtracting 0 from both sides, and then divide both sides by 2. Here is the math to illustrate better:

2x + 0 = 408

2x + 0 - 0 = 408 - 0
2x = 408

2x/2 = 408/2
x = 204

Answer = 204

The answer above is correct, because twice 204 is 408, and 0 more than 408 is in fact 408.
