4 more than twice a number is 468

The number (x) in: "4 more than twice a number is 468" 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 4, you get 468.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 4 = 468

Then you solve the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides, and then divide both sides by 2. Here is the math to illustrate better:

2x + 4 = 468

2x + 4 - 4 = 468 - 4
2x = 464

2x/2 = 464/2
x = 232

Answer = 232

The answer above is correct, because twice 232 is 464, and 4 more than 464 is in fact 468.
