Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: 3x=60

Given : The total number of boxes of crayon = 5

The number of crayons in each box = 12

Then, the total number of crayons in 5 boxes =5*12=60

let x be the total number of crayons each girl got.

Rose, Bette and Cindy (three friends)equally shared the total crayons , then the equation to show how much each girl got:-

3x=60
