![**Evaluating an Algebraic Expression: Whole Numbers**
---
**Problem Statement:**
Evaluate the expression when \( c = 34 \) and \( d = 6 \).
Expression: \( c - 3d \)
---
**Solution Steps:**
1. Substitute the given values into the expression.
\[
c = 34, \quad d = 6
\]
\[
c - 3d = 34 - 3 \times 6
\]
2. Perform the multiplication part of the expression.
\[
3 \times 6 = 18
\]
3. Subtract the result from \( c \).
\[
34 - 18 = 16
\]
The value of the expression \( c - 3d \) when \( c = 34 \) and \( d = 6 \) is \( 16 \).
