#(y-3)-:2#

Explanation:

Quotient (#-:#) of three less (#-#) than a number y (your dividend) and (your divisor) two

"Three less than a number #y#" will come out as #y-3#, as this would be taking three from the number #y#.

Since we're finding the quotient of #y-3#, and our divisor (the number we divide by) is two, your equation looks like:

#(y-3)-:2#
