2x - 7 = -1
To say that 2 is less than twice a number and four means, algebraically, that 2 < 2x + 4. This simplifies to -2 < 2x or x > -1. This is not a quotient, however, so perhaps your question was not clearly worded.
Given a number N, you would have: 2*N - 5
Well, honey, if you want to get technical, 2 less than twice a number is just the number itself minus 2. So, if your number is x, the expression would be 2x - 2. But hey, who am I to rain on your math parade?
twice a number can be 2x and six less than it is 2x-6.
2x-3 , where x is the number referred to in the question
Let the number be x Twice a number means 2x 7 less than twice a number means 2x-7
2x-15 = 53
The number works out as 14
sum - means addition less - means subtraction twice - means multiply by 2

Example:VERBAL SENTENCE:Seven more than twice a number is four less than thrice the number.MATHEMATICAL EQUATION:(seven more than) (four less than)(twice a number) is (thrice a number)2x + 7 = 3x - 4=Earljoyce8♥=Hope this helps!!
32-2x < 18
twice an unknown number less one and one-half times the same number equals two ---- Let the unknown number be "x":: Equation: 2x - (3/2)x = 2
This means that X=2N-3.
