    Answer: 26

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the number be n.

    Now,

    twice a number = >> 2n

    added to 3 = >> 2n + 3

    is divided by the number plus 7 is five thirds = >> (2n + 3) / (n + 7) = 5 / 3

    (2n + 3) = (5 / 3) * (n + 7)

    3 * (2n + 3) = 5 * (n + 7)

    6n+9 = 5n + 35

    6n - 5n = 35 - 9

    n = 26
