We are given the following word problem

"61 less than twice Vidy's score​"

Let us translate the word problem into an algebraic expression

Let v represents Vidy's score

twice Vidy's score means 2 times v

61 less than means to subtract 61 from 2 times v

So, the algebraic expression becomes


2v-61
