2 more than twice a number is 570

The number (x) in: "2 more than twice a number is 570" 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 570.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 2 = 570

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 = 570

2x + 2 - 2 = 570 - 2
2x = 568

2x/2 = 568/2
x = 284

Answer = 284

The answer above is correct, because twice 284 is 568, and 2 more than 568 is in fact 570.
