Answer 1

Can u tell me what math book this was from ?

Explanation:

Answer 2

Austin would have 6 jelly beans and Alex would have 18 because if Alex were to have three times as many jellybeans as Austin that means Austin will have one times and Alex would have three times which equals four so you would have to divide 4÷24 which gives them six for each group
