Paul’s electric bill was three dollars more than one-half his gas bill. If the electric bill was ninety two dollars what was his gas bill? Give me an expression

The bill was 3 more than half the gas, so work it backwords. Multiply by 2, and subtract 3. 92 times 2 is 184, and minus 3 is 181, so his gas bill is 181 dollars. Please correct me if I'm wrong!
