you are right.
To find out how many computers Mr. Jackson sold in three years, we need to calculate the total number of computers sold in each year and then add them together.
In the first year, Mr. Jackson sold 3 computers.
In the second year, he sold 4 times as many computers as in the first year. Therefore, 4 x 3 = 12 computers were sold in the second year.
In the third year, he sold 6 times as many computers as in the first year. Therefore, 6 x 3 = 18 computers were sold in the third year.
To calculate the total number of computers sold in three years, we add the number of computers sold in each year: 3 + 12 + 18 = 33.
Therefore, Mr. Jackson sold a total of 33 computers in three years.
