4 more than twice a number is 758

The number (x) in: "4 more than twice a number is 758" 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 758.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 4 = 758

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 = 758

2x + 4 - 4 = 758 - 4
2x = 754

2x/2 = 754/2
x = 377

Answer = 377

The answer above is correct, because twice 377 is 754, and 4 more than 754 is in fact 758.
