Given the statement:

w is 217 fewer than the product of 29 and k

Representation:

The given statement can be represented as,

w - 217 = 29k

We've used the minus sign in line with the word “fewer” since it denotes the operation of subtraction. For 29 and k, we've equated it as one since we are asked for the product, therefore we've make used of the operation of multiplication.

Final answer:

w - 217 = 29k
