Answer:

The required number is 63

Step-by-step explanation :

Let the number be x

Now As per question , the equation is written as

x - 23 = 2 × [ 15 - ( - 3) ] + 4

Or, x - 23 = 2 × ( 18) + 4

Or , x - 23 = 36 +4

Or, x - 23 = 40

So, x = 40 + 23

∴ x = 63

Hence the required number is 63 Answer
