Let x be the number of bowls she needs,

Since, In each bowls the number of packs = 3,

Thus, she has total number of packs = 3 × x = 3x

But according to the question,

`3 x = 24`

3 × Number of bowls she needs = 24

Which is the required multiplication statement,

By solving it we get x = 8,

Thus, she needs 8 bowls to pack 24 packs.
