Let's call the number you thought of "x."
We are told that "My number doubled is 20 greater than 200." This can be written as an equation: 2x = 200 + 20.
Simplifying this equation, we have 2x = 220.
To find the value of x, we need to isolate x. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 2: (2x)/2 = 220/2.
This simplifies to x = 110.
Therefore, your number is 110.
