ivanzaharov [21]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

Kari bought 3 boxes of cookies to share. The algebraic expression is $\frac{36}{x}$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Kari bought 3 boxes of cookies to share with a book club.

Each box contains 12 cookies.

So, in total we have 3 x 12 cookies = 36 cookies.

Now, we have to find how many cookies can each person p will get.

Let, the total number of persons be x.

Then, after equally sharing the cookies,

$\text { Number of cookies with each person }=\frac{\text {number } of \text { cookies available.}}{\text {total number of persons}}$

$=\frac{36}{x} \text { cookies. }$

Hence, the algebraic expression is $\frac{36}{x}$
