Jamir Goodman · Answer 1

3x = 18 (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If she has a total of 18 apples, and she wants to give her neighbors three apples each, you would have to divide 18 by 3 to find how many neighbors she can give them to.

18 divided by 3 = x

x = 6

4. 3x=18

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer you do 18/3=X, then all you do is turn that division problem into a multiplication problem and get 3x=18
