Answer:

d) 48

Step-by-step explanation:

equation is p=3s and 'p' is the number of pencils and 's' being the number of students.

since the question asks us how many pencils she distributed, we have to substitude a number into the equation to make it true.

lets solve for each variable first:

p=?

s=16

we know both of the variables so all we have to do is apply it into the equation.

p=3(16) which is the same as 3 × 16

p=48

therefore tanya distributed 48 pencils (d)
