It is given that, Diana's age is d.

The statement for Carol's age is "Carol is 3 years younger than half of her sister Diana's age".

Half of Diana's age = (1/2) d

Where d is Diana's age.

The expression for Carol's age fr the given statement is :

Carol's age =
`(d)/(2)-3`

`C's\ age =(d-6)/(2)`

Hence, Carol's age is
`(d-6)/(2)`.
