7 more than twice a number is 335

The number (x) in: "7 more than twice a number is 335" 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 335.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 7 = 335

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 = 335

2x + 7 - 7 = 335 - 7
2x = 328

2x/2 = 328/2
x = 164

Answer = 164

The answer above is correct, because twice 164 is 328, and 7 more than 328 is in fact 335.
