Answer: 17

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, the phrase "a number" can be interpreted as a variable.  In this case, let the variable be "x."

Thus, "twice a number" = "2x"

"and 13" = "+ 13"

"is 47" = "= 47"

Thus, the problem is simply 2x + 13 = 47.

Then, simply subtract 13 from both sides to get 2x = 34.

Then, simply divide both sides by 2 to get x = 17.

Because "the number" is "x," the number is 17.
