Which equation could be used to solve the question below?

Dalton made b batches of a dozen muffins. He divided the muffins into 3 equal cans. Now, he has 96 muffins in each can. How many batches of a dozen muffins did Dalton bake?

A.

b * 12 : 3 = 96

B.

b * 12 * 3 = 96

C.

b : 12 * 3 = 96

D.

b : 12 : 3 = 96

b * 12 : 3 = 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Dalton made b batches of a dozen muffins.

Therefore, the number of total muffins is b * 12.

Now, he divides the muffins into 3 equal cans.

Therefore, in each can there is b * 12 : 3 muffins.

Given that he has 96 muffins in each can.

Therefore, b * 12 : 3 = 96 and this is the equation to find the number of batches of dozen muffins that Dalton baked. (Answer)
