Answer:
x = [tex]\frac{3}{4}(n-1)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
It's given in the question that '' The number is 75% of one less than a number n"
Let the number is 'x'.
One less than a number 'n' will be = (n - 1)
75% of one less than a number will be = 75% of (n -1)
= [tex]\frac{75}{100}(n-1)[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{3}{4}(n-1)[/tex]
Therefore, the desired expression to get the number 'x' will be,
x = [tex]\frac{3}{4}(n-1)[/tex]
