Bob has three sacks of apples and three more apples in his pocket. Each sack contains the same number of apples. All together, Bob has 33 apples. How many apples are in each sack?
10 * 3 + 3 = 33
To find out how many apples are in each sack, we need to set up an equation based on the information given. Let's call the number of apples in each sack "x."
We know that Bob has three sacks of apples, so the total number of apples in the sacks is 3 * x.
We also know that Bob has three additional apples in his pocket.
So, the total number of apples Bob has is 3 * x + 3, which is equal to 33.
Now, we can write the equation: 3x + 3 = 33.
To find the value of x, we need to solve this equation.
Subtracting 3 from both sides of the equation gives us: 3x = 30.
Then, dividing both sides of the equation by 3, we get: x = 10.
Therefore, there are 10 apples in each sack.
