Answer:
"three times a number is the same as twice the difference of the number and 1"
Step-by-step explanation:
3c is "three times a number"
2(c -1) is "two times the difference of the number and 1"
When writing the description of the right-hand side, one needs to be careful to write it so there is no ambiguity with respect to what is being multiplied by 2. For example, if you say, "two times one less than the number", it is not clear whether that is c -2×1 or 2×(c -1).
A suitable description is ...
three times a number is the same as twice the difference of the number and 1
