The number (x) in: "4 more than twice a number is 650" 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 650.
To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 4 = 650
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 = 650
2x + 4 - 4 = 650 - 4
2x = 646
2x/2 = 646/2
x = 323
Answer = 323
The answer above is correct, because twice 323 is 646, and 4 more than 646 is in fact 650.
