If n is your number, twice a number would be 2n. Three less than that is 2n-3

Answer:

2x-3

Explanation:

Not exactly sure what the question being asked is, but I assume its that you want this written out algebraically. Double a number can be represented by 2x, and 3 less can be represented by -3. Add these terms together and you get 2x-3.
