Answer :-
Required natural number is 9.
Explanation :-
Let the natural number be 'x'
Natural number 'x' = 3 more than twice the square root of the natural number 'x'
⇒ x = 2√x + 3
⇒ x - 3 = 2√x
Squaring on both sides
⇒ (x - 3)² = (2√x)²
⇒ (x)² - 2(x)(3) + (3)² = 2²(√x)² [Since (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²]
⇒ x² - 6x + 9 = 4(x)
⇒ x² - 6x + 9 = 4x
⇒ x² - 6x + 9 - 4x = 0
⇒ x² - 10x + 9 = 0
Splitting the middle term
⇒ x² - 9x - x + 9 = 0
⇒ x(x - 9) - 1(x - 9) = 0
⇒ (x - 9)(x - 1) = 0
⇒ x - 9 = 0 or x - 1 = 0
⇒ x = 9 or x = 1
If x = 1
⇒ x = 2√x + 3
⇒ 1 = 2(√1) + 3
⇒ 1 = 2(1) + 3
⇒ 1 ≠ 2 + 3
So x ≠ 1
If x = 9
⇒ x = 2√x + 3
⇒ 9 = 2(√9) + 3
⇒ 9 = 2(3) + 3
⇒ 9 = 6 + 3
⇒ 9 = 9
So x = 9
Therefore the required natural number is 9.
