Assume that the number you are looking for is n.
Now, three more than the number can be written as: n + 3
twice the number is 2n.

Therefore, transforming the given condition into an equation, we get:
3 + n < 2n
3 < 2n - n
3 < n

Therefore, the number you are looking for could be any number greater than three.
