@Daniyil_the_spy you can not be giving the answers away, you must help the owlet so that they may understand the question and how to solve. This is in violation of the code of conduct. Please refrain from this in the future.
Try writing it as an equation. So if the product of 4 and a number EQUALS 18 MORE than TWO times that number, then the equation would be 4x=18+2x. Solve from there.
Product implies multiplication, so it is a product of 4 and a number. An undefined number is x. so that is 4x. then it equals 18 more, "more" implying addition, than two times the number, again the same number, meaning x. but since it is 2 times that number, it would be 2x. you get 4x=18+2x. I hope i explained that well.
