The last option is the answer
X =3
Answer:
10 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
So in order to figure this out you have to work backwards. First, Daniel came and took a cookie. So when he took 1 there were 3 cookies available. Next Christine took one fourth of the cookies, meaning that the 3 available cookies are the remaining 3/4's. When she got there she took 1. Then Beth came and took 1/3. For it to be 3/3 there has to be 1 and 1/3 more cookies. Now there are 5 and 1/3 cookies. Amanda came and ate half of the cookies meaning that the amount of cookies we have now is the other half that she didnt eat. 5 and 1/3 plus 5 and 1/3 is 10 and 2/3. I hope this is correct.
B would be the correct answer
