2 more than twice a number is 110

The number (x) in: "2 more than twice a number is 110" 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 2, you get 110.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 2 = 110

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

2x + 2 = 110

2x + 2 - 2 = 110 - 2
2x = 108

2x/2 = 108/2
x = 54

Answer = 54

The answer above is correct, because twice 54 is 108, and 2 more than 108 is in fact 110.
