4 more than twice a number is 672

The number (x) in: "4 more than twice a number is 672" 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 672.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 4 = 672

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 = 672

2x + 4 - 4 = 672 - 4
2x = 668

2x/2 = 668/2
x = 334

Answer = 334

The answer above is correct, because twice 334 is 668, and 4 more than 668 is in fact 672.
