To find the number of bean bags \( b \) in the instructor's box, we can use the equation that represents the total number of bean bags divided among the clowns. Since there are 16 clowns and each clown receives 6 bean bags, the equation can be written as:
\[
b = 16 \times 6
\]
Now, we can solve this equation for \( b \):
\[
b = 96
\]
Therefore, the number of bean bags in the instructor's box is **96 bean bags**.
\[
b = 16 \times 6
\]
Now, we can solve this equation for \( b \):
\[
b = 96
\]
Therefore, the number of bean bags in the instructor's box is **96 bean bags**.
