2 more than twice a number is 134

The number (x) in: "2 more than twice a number is 134" 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 134.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 2 = 134

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 = 134

2x + 2 - 2 = 134 - 2
2x = 132

2x/2 = 132/2
x = 66

Answer = 66

The answer above is correct, because twice 66 is 132, and 2 more than 132 is in fact 134.
