The answer to your question is: .75 = 3x - .03

How to solve it:

x = the cost of a pack of gum twenty years ago

.75 =  3x - .03
+ .03      + .03

.78 = 3x
 / 3    / 3         

.26 = x

If a pack of gum now costs 75 cents, which is 3 cents less than three times what a pack would have cost 20 years ago, then a pack of gum would have cost 26 cents.
