Answer:let the initial number of shells that dev has be A, and initial number of shells that zoe has be B. let the number of shells that zoe gives to dev be x. after giiving x shells zoe is left with 3 times the number of shell as that of dev. therefore number of shells with zoe = 3×number of shells with dev.
Might not be correct but I try to explain in my best ways(: question not from safari! let the initial number of shells that dev has be A, and initial number of shells that zoe has be B. let the number of shells that zoe gives to dev be x. after giiving x shells zoe is left with 3 times the number of shell as that of dev. therefore number of shells with zoe = 3×number of shells with dev.
