2 more than twice a number is 328

The number (x) in: "2 more than twice a number is 328" 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 328.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 2 = 328

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 = 328

2x + 2 - 2 = 328 - 2
2x = 326

2x/2 = 326/2
x = 163

Answer = 163

The answer above is correct, because twice 163 is 326, and 2 more than 326 is in fact 328.
