9 more than twice a number is 835

The number (x) in: "9 more than twice a number is 835" 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 9, you get 835.

To solve this, you first write the problem as an algebra equation as follows: 2x + 9 = 835

Then you solve the equation by subtracting 9 from both sides, and then divide both sides by 2. Here is the math to illustrate better:

2x + 9 = 835

2x + 9 - 9 = 835 - 9
2x = 826

2x/2 = 826/2
x = 413

Answer = 413

The answer above is correct, because twice 413 is 826, and 9 more than 826 is in fact 835.
