Answer: there were 12 chocolates in each box. (Originally, before any got eaten)

Step-by-step explanation: let x represent the total amount of chocolates in each box.

8x - 3(8) = 72

8x - 24 = 72 add 24 to both sides

8x = 96 divide both sides by 8

X = 12

Answer:

That means you had 48 chocolates in each box

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you eat 3 chocolates from all 8 boxes, you do this:

8 x 3 which = 24

Now since you have 72 chocolates left you do this:

72 - 24 which = 48

So, therefore, there were originally 48 chocolates in each box

(Don't eat so much chocolate lol you could get sick)
