Answer:

6 baseball cards.

Explanation:

We have been given that Dwight has 3 baseball cards, and Ellis has 9 baseball cards.

First of all, we will find total number of baseball cards by adding 3 to 9.


\text{Total baseball cards}=3+9


\text{Total baseball cards}=12

Since we need to divide baseball cards equally between Dwight and Ellis, so we will divide total number of cards by 2.


\text{Number of baseball cards each person will have}=(12)/(2)


\text{Number of baseball cards each person will have}=6

Therefore, Dwight and Ellis will have 6 baseball cards each.
