Question

If a number n is subtracted from 25, the result is three less than n. What is the value of n?

n = 14
n = 28
n = 11
n = 22

Answer 1

Well, let's try them all.

25-14=11, 11 is three less then 14
25-28=-3, -3 is 31 less then 28
25-11=14, 14 is 3 MORE then 11
25-22=3, 3 is 19 less then 22.

n=14 is your answer. Hope this helped!
