7 more than twice a number is 210

The number (x) in: "7 more than twice a number is 210" 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 7, you get 210.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 7 = 210

Then you solve the equation by subtracting 7 from both sides, and then divide both sides by 2. Here is the math to illustrate better:

2x + 7 = 210

2x + 7 - 7 = 210 - 7
2x = 203

2x/2 = 203/2
x = 101.5

Answer = 101.5

The answer above is correct, because twice 101.5 is 203, and 7 more than 203 is in fact 210.
