The number (x) in: "4 more than twice a number is 674" 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 674.
To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 4 = 674
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 = 674
2x + 4 - 4 = 674 - 4
2x = 670
2x/2 = 670/2
x = 335
Answer = 335
The answer above is correct, because twice 335 is 670, and 4 more than 670 is in fact 674.
