If m represents the number of bracelets Maria has, then the expression to represent the number of bracelets Rosa has would be:

m - 5

Since Rosa has 5 fewer bracelets than Maria, we can subtract 5 from the number of bracelets Maria has (represented by m) to get the number of bracelets that Rosa has.
