Janelle is in charge of bringing in dry erase markers for everyone in her math group to use to work on a project. She brings 3 m

arkers for each person in her group and 5 extra markers for everyone to share. If Janelle brings in 23 markers in all, which equation represents the information?
Let x represent the number of students in Janelle’s group.
3x = 23 + 5
3x = 23
3x – 5 = 23
3x + 5 = 23
