A 3x cuz he had 3 times the amount.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of those answers represents 3 times x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3*x = 3x\]

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Same type of problem as before: your brother's amount: x you = y. you have 3 TIMES he has.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What anon said, you have 3 TIMES more than him. Which is why you multiply by 3.
