Hey there!!

Let's take the number as ' n '

Three times the difference of a four and number.

... 3 ( 4 - n )

Eight more than the expression.

... 8 + 3 ( 4 - n )

' n ' is given as ' 3 '.

Plugging in :

... 8 + 3 ( 4 - 3 )

... 8 + 3 ( 1 )

... 8 + 3

... 11

The required answer is 11.

Hope my answer helps!!
