3 times the difference of n and 4
Here, we want to get the best verbal expression that best explains the given algebraic expression
Let us have the algebraic expression of each of the options;
a) 3 times n subtracted from 4
That would be 3 (4-n)
b) 3 times the difference of n and 4
That would be 3(n-4)
c) the difference of 4 and 3 times n
That would be n(4-3)
d) the product of n and four minus 3
That would be (4*n)-3 = 4n-3
As we can see, only the second option gave us the correct algebraic expression and is thus our answer
