The phrase "three less than the product of P and 15" can be translated into an algebraic expression as follows:

1. The product of P and 15 is represented as \( 15P \).
2. "Three less than" indicates that we subtract 3 from this product.

Putting it all together, the algebraic expression is:

\[ 15P - 3 \]
