Let's represent the number as x.
According to the given information, we can form the following equation:
4x + 15 = 191 - 4x
Now, let's solve for x:
Adding 4x to both sides of the equation:
4x + 4x + 15 = 191 - 4x + 4x
8x + 15 = 191
Subtracting 15 from both sides of the equation:
8x + 15 -15 = 191 - 15
8x = 176
Dividing both sides of the equation by 8:
(8x)/8 = 176/8
x = 22
Therefore, the number is 22.
