Mikaela friends bought a big box of crackers to the movie theater.53 crackers are whole wheat and 29 crackers are cheese flavored. the remaining 1/3 of the box contains sesame seeds crackers. how many crackers are in the box altogether?

123 crackers

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/3 of the box contains sesame seed crackers, then, 2/3 of the box contains whole wheat and cheese flavored crackers.

Total number of whole wheat and cheese flavored crackers = 53 + 29 = 82

Let x be the total number of crackers in the box, so we will have the equation

2/3 x= 82

x = 82 ÷ 2/3; we will get

X =82 x 3/2

X = 123 crackers
