40 less than twice Goran's age

Answer 1

Goran's age is represented by X.

Twice Goran's age would be represented by 2 times x which is written as 2x.

"40 Less than" means we have to subtract the amount of 40 from our 2x.

2x - 40

Answer 2

Let Goran's age be "g"

Twice Goran's age is then "2g"

40 less than that is "2g - 40"
