<span>six less than: Think of this as "minus 6" or -6.
number: Think of this as "n."
one-third of a number: Think of this "as one-third of n" or (1/3)n
Putting that together:
(1/3) n - 6 ---> finally 1/3n-6
for six less than one-third a number</span>
"six less than", which mean the number six will be the negative number in the equation Based on the options, i think the expression would be : 1/3n - 6
