Answer:

x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there were x number of poeple at Friday's game and there were 18 less fans at Saturday's game, you subtract 18 from the number of people during Friday's game which is x. The word "less" indicates subtraction.

Alright, lets get started.

Friday's night game, fan are given = X

half of the fans at Fridays night fans =
(x)/(2)

On Saturday, there were 18 less fans than half the fans at Friday night's game

Means

Saturdays night game, fanes =
(x)/(2) -18

So, the expression representing the number of fans at Saturday's game will be
(x)/(2) -18 : Answer

Hope it will help :)
