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
Oh, dude, so like, if you have a number, let's call it "x," twice that number would be 2x. Now, if you take 2 away from that, you get 2x - 2. So, 2 less than twice a number is 2x - 2. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
twice a number can be 2x and six less than it is 2x-6.
x / (2y - 7)
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
Let's denote the unknown number as x. The equation that represents "8 less than twice a number is 42" can be written as 2x - 8 = 42. This equation states that when you multiply the unknown number by 2 and then subtract 8 from the result, the answer is 42. To solve for x, you would add 8 to both sides of the equation and then divide by 2, giving you x = 25.
This means that X=2N-3.
I'm not clear on what you're asking here, but if you want that written as an equation, it is: 2x - 3
