9 fish in each tank * 9 tanks = 81 fish in total?

I think this is meant:

9 fish in 6 tanks = 54 fish

if there were 3 more tanks (9 in total ) how many fish would there be in each tank if th e54 were evenly divided

so 9 * 3 = 27 fish in those three tanks?

no
distribute all the fish between 9 tanks
