or

(

n

2

−

2

)

Explanation:

First, let's write "three less than the number". "less than the number" means to subtract from the number. So we can write:

n

−

3

.

Now we need to take one-half of this. This means to multiple by

1

2

. Taking what we previously wrote and multiplying by

1

2

gives:
