The statement is given as,

The sum of 16 and 11 is represented as,


16+11

Let this sum is represented by letter S,


S=16+11

According to the statement, this sum S is to be subtracted from 43.

This can be written as,


43-S

Substitute the value keeping in mind that the parenthesis will be used to denote S as a single term,


43-(16+11)

Thus, the correct expression for the given statement is,


43-(16+11)

Therefore, option C is the correct choice.
