the thousands digit of a 4-digit number is 4 greater than the hundreds digit. The tens digit is 2 times the thousands digit. The ones digit is one-half the thousands digit. What is the number?
PLEASE help. I honestly wouldn't ask if I wasn't so hopelessly stuck! I have to show my work so if you could please show how you got your answer that'd be great. I know it's hard and sorta complicated but if you try thank you that's all I ask :)

"the thousands digit of a 4-digit number is 4 greater than the hundreds digit."
So could be
40xx
51xx
62xx
73xx
84xx
95xx
"The tens digit is 2 times the thousands digit"
The tens digit must be a single digit 9 or less. That means the thousands digit must be 4 or less. So from the above list that only leaves
40xx
Adding the tens digit we have
408x
"The ones digit is one-half the thousands digit."
So we now have
4082
