It states "If the number of students in the computer class is c", so we have no choice but to make the declarative statement

Let c = number of students in the computer class


-------------------------------------------------------

Then it mentions that "The number of students in a math class is 10 more than three times the number in a computer class" which means

(number of students in math class) = 3 * (number of students in computer class) + 10

m = 3 * (c) + 10

m = 3c + 10


So the final answer is 3c + 10 (Note: I made the implicit declaration that m = # of students in math class)
