The answer would be B: n-1
To break it down, 1 less means subtracted by one so in the equation (-1) and the number is the variable that is represented by ‘n’ so if something is 1 less than a number it will be n-1

The answer is B) n-1.

If you are doing one less than a number, than you know that you will need a variable that is being subtracted from. We know that the variable is n. We also know that 1 is being subtracted from it. Therefore, the answer is n-1.

Hope you have an amazing day!✨❤️
