Explanation:
Let the number be
[tex]=w[/tex]The number times 3 can be represented below as
[tex]\begin{gathered} w\times3 \\ =3w \end{gathered}[/tex]The sum of a number times 3 and 25 will be given below as
[tex]3w+25[/tex]The sum of a number times 3 and 25 is greater than 17 will be represented below as
[tex]3w+25>17[/tex]Hence,
The final answer is
