A cross section is the shape you get when you cut straight through an object Like a prism so
you will get a triangle example:
In geometry it is the shape made when a solid is cut through by a plane. The cross section of a circular cylinder is a circle or a cross section of a pyramid is a rectangle. A two dimensional figure like a rectangle has two dimensions length and width. A three dimensional figure like a building has three dimensions length width and height.

Let the number of students in the class be x
Let the number of pieces of gum she gave out be 3x
Equation
3x + 8 = 168 This will not work out evenly. Let's try x - 1. The reason for that is because she may not give out anything to herself.
3(x - 1) + 8 = 168 This doesn't work either.
Well we have to choose. It's a rounding problem.
3x + 8 = 168 Subtract 8 from both sides.
3x = 168 - 8 Combine
3x = 160 Divide by 3 on both sides.
x = 160 / 3
x = 53.333333333
Since that can't be, we could say there were 53 students.
