One third of the bagels in a bakery are sesame bagels. There are 72 sesame bagels. Define a variable. Then write and slice an equation to find how many bagels there were in the bakery.

Respuesta :

t=total bagels
s=sesame bagels

s x 3 = t

72 x 3 is 216.

there are 216 bagels in total, while 72 is just 1/3 of that
