Let the number be x.
Then 2x-6=3x+4
Let us solve it and check that the expression makes sense.
add -2x to both sides
-6=x+4
now subtract 4 or add -4, same thing
x=-10
So twice the number is -20 and 6 less is -26
The right hand side says 3 times -10 is -30 and 4 more than -30 is -26.
It is good to check it after we do complete the problem to make sure we did not make an error.
I make them all the time!

3x + 5 = 33 - 4 (which is true when x = 8)
It would look like: 5x = 3x+6 and the value of x works our as 3
The algebraic expression for "five more than three times some number" is 3x + 5, where x represents the unknown number.
3 x 8
n + 2n = 3n
