Which of the following represents “6 less
than 3 times x? "
a. 6x - 3
b. 3 - 6x
(c. 3x - 6
d. 6 - 3x

C) 3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be represented by placeholder x.

Then the product of 3 and the number is represented by 3*x or 3x.

This value diminished by 6 corresponds to 3x-6.

So the expression representing the required overall construct mathematically is given by 3x-6

Option a, 6x-3 represents the difference of 6 times x and 3.

Option b, 3-6x represents the difference of 3 and (6 times x).

Option d, 6-3x represents the difference of 6 and (3 times x).
