It's a confusing way to state a rather simple algebraic equation. We're guessing

that you want to see a solution to the equation, although you haven't asked for it.

First of all, it will be a lot easier to follow the statement if we give the number a name.

Let's call the number "Bob".

You have said that [ 4 (Bob + 6) = 7 Bob ] .

Eliminate parentheses on the left side of the equation:

4 Bob + 24 = 7 Bob

Subtract 4 Bob from each side of the equation:

24 = 3 Bob

Divide each side by 3 :

8 = Bob
