4 more than twice a number is 614

The number (x) in: "4 more than twice a number is 614" 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 614.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 4 = 614

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 = 614

2x + 4 - 4 = 614 - 4
2x = 610

2x/2 = 610/2
x = 305

Answer = 305

The answer above is correct, because twice 305 is 610, and 4 more than 610 is in fact 614.
