Dana picks three times as many tomatoes, t, as she does beets, b. She picks 42 tomatoes. Which equation represents this situation?

b = 3(24)
b = 3 + 42
42 = 3 b
42 = 3 + b

42 = 3b

Step-by-step explanation:

Three times as many tomatoes as beets means that for every beet picked, 3 tomatoes are picked

So the ratio of tomato to beet = 3: 1

Number of tomatoes = 42

this means, 3 : 1 = 42 : b

3/1 = 42/b

cross multiply

42 = 3b
