4 more than twice a number is 695

The number (x) in: "4 more than twice a number is 695" 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 695.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 4 = 695

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 = 695

2x + 4 - 4 = 695 - 4
2x = 691

2x/2 = 691/2
x = 345.5

Answer = 345.5

The answer above is correct, because twice 345.5 is 691, and 4 more than 691 is in fact 695.
