ANSWER :

t - 3 < 26

EXPLANATION :

From the problem, the initial temperature is t degrees.

If the temperature falls by 3 more degrees, which means 3 degrees subtracted from t degrees (t - 3), it will break the record low temperature (26 degrees)

It means that the temperature passes the 26 degrees mark, so the temperature must be less than 26 degrees to break the record.

That will be :


t-3<26
