hello!

"5 less than 8" means we subtract 5 from 8:-

8-5

That's the expression :)

Simplify the expression:-

3

So if we have less than a number, we subtract that number.

note:-

Hope everything is clear; if you need any explanation/clarification, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)
