Let's assume the number of seashells Lucy has is L.
Since Daisy has 6 more than three times as many seashells as Lucy, we can form the equation: 3L + 6 = 36.
Subtracting 6 from both sides, we get 3L = 36 - 6, which simplifies to 3L = 30.
Dividing both sides by 3, we get L = 30/3 = 10.
Therefore, Lucy has 10 seashells.
