Answer

$2\times(3+y)=4$

Work Step by Step

This sentence tells us that 2 times the value of y added to 3 is equal to 4. Because 2 is multiplying the sum of 3 and y, we know that 3 and y must be added before the sum can be multiplied by 2. Thus, 3 and y go in parenthesis, and 2 multiplies their resulting sum.
