Sarita,Clara,and Joe baked. muffins,which they shared equally. Clara ate one on the way home. She had 14 muffins left.How many muffins did Sarita,Clara, and Joe bake?

3 * 15 = ?

Sarita: X muffins.

Clara: X muffins.
Joe: X muffins.

Clara: x-1 = 14
X = 15

Total = 3x = 3*15 = 45 muffins.

To find the total number of muffins that Sarita, Clara, and Joe baked, we can use the information given in the problem.

Let's start by assuming that Sarita, Clara, and Joe baked x number of muffins. Since they shared the muffins equally, each person would get x/3 muffins.

According to the problem, Clara ate one muffin on the way home, so she had 14 muffins left. This means that Clara had (x/3) - 1 muffins left.

Now we can set up an equation based on this information:

(x/3) - 1 = 14

To solve this equation, let's isolate x:

(x/3) = 15

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 3, we get:

x = 45

Therefore, Sarita, Clara, and Joe baked a total of 45 muffins.
