Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
1) A number is doubled. This number will be represented by X.
8 + (X • 2) = 60
2) Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation
(X • 2) = 60 - 8
3) Simplify the equation
X • 2 = 52
4) Divide each side of the equation by 2
X = 52 ÷ 2
52 ÷ 2 = 26
5) Simplify the equation
X = 26
