Twice the difference of a number and ten can be expressed as ( 2(x - 10) ), where ( x ) represents the number. This means you first find the difference between the number and ten, and then multiply that result by two. For example, if the number is 15, the expression would evaluate to ( 2(15 - 10) = 2 \times 5 = 10 ).
The difference between five times a number and twice that number can be expressed mathematically. If we let the number be represented by ( x ), then five times the number is ( 5x ) and twice that number is ( 2x ). The difference is calculated as ( 5x - 2x ), which simplifies to ( 3x ). Thus, the difference is three times the original number.
It does not mean anything at all. "Twice a number" is only one number while "the difference" must refer to two numbers, not just one.

twice the difference of three times a number and eight
It is 20.
The difference between a number x and twice y is equal to fifteen.
one third of the difference between ten and a number

One number is eight more than twice another if their difference is 25. The larger number is 42
Twice the number is something like 3x2, 4x2.... Squared is 3x3, 4x4. It's one number multiplied by itself twice
