Let's assume the unknown number is "x".
According to the problem, the sum of 35 and the unknown number is divided by 4, resulting in double the unknown number. We can express this as:
(35 + x) / 4 = 2x
To solve this equation, we can simplify it by multiplying both sides by 4 to eliminate the denominator:
35 + x = 8x
Next, we can move all the terms involving "x" to one side of the equation:
35 = 8x - x
This simplifies to:
35 = 7x
Finally, divide both sides by 7 to solve for "x":
35/7 = x
5 = x
Therefore, the unknown number is 5.
