Answer:

x = 14 - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

*The key word 'less than' means to subtract.

x + 3 = 14 is incorrect. Kiran isn't adding weight to his backpack.

In other words, the backpack didn't increase in pounds.

3(x) = 14 is incorrect. Multiplying is irrelevant to this problem, it's not saying Kiran's backpack is 3 times a number equal to Clare's backpack weight.

x = 143 is incorrect. This equation is unrealistic.

x = 14 - 3 is correct. This equation is explaining that Kiran's backpack is 3 pounds less than Clare's backpack (14)
