Answer:

2 x  − 6

Explanation:

"Six less than.." means "Subtract 6 from".

Do not confuse this with "Six less..." which means "Subtract from 6".

Confusing, I know.

We know that "Double a number" means  

2 x , where  x  is your mystery number.

Therefore, we have:

2 x  −  6 , which translates to "6 less than 2x" or "6 less than twice a number"
