Answer:

The correct option is a) 3n - 4 = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of 3 and a number means 3 multiplied by a number (n)

So it'll be 3*n or simply 3n

Now, it says 4 less than the product

So 4 less than 3n

That is equal to 3n minus 4 or 3n -4

So we come to the conclusion that

3n - 4 = 15

Hope this helps!
