Let n be the number unknown


2(n)-2=n+64


Use distribute property to remove parenthesis

2n-2=n+64


Move all n term to left side


2n-n-2=64


Combine like terms with n


N-2=64


Now add integer to right side by doing opposite sign


N = 64+2


Solve for n


N=66


Your number is 66


To check you substitute


2(66)-2=66+64

130. =130
