24 is the answer

24 is the answer to the question

To find the number Kathy is thinking of, we need to solve the equation based on the clues provided.

Let's assign a variable to the unknown number Kathy is thinking of. Let's say the number is "x."

According to the clue, when Kathy's number is doubled and added to 10, the result is 58. So we can write it as an equation:

2x + 10 = 58

To isolate the variable x, we can start solving the equation by subtracting 10 from both sides:

2x = 58 - 10
2x = 48

Now we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 2:

x = 48 / 2
x = 24

Therefore, the number Kathy is thinking of is 24.
