To find out how many pencils the students used, we can multiply the total number of pencils by the fraction of pencils they used, which is 3/8.
24 pencils * 3/8 = 72/8 = 9
Therefore, the students used 9 pencils.
Twenty-four pencils are in a package. The students use 3/8
of the pencils. How many did they use?
