Caitlin started with 18 stuffed animals and gave away x stuffed animals. Allie started with 30 stuffed animals and gave away three times as many stuffed animals as Caitlin did. How many stuffed animals did Caitlin give away, given they had the same number of stuffed animals left?

1. 2 stuff animals
2. 6 stuff animals
3. 12 stuff animals
4. 16 stuff animals

Answer: 6 stuff animals

Step-by-step explanation: Caitlin give away 6 and Allie give away 6 x 3 = 18 and she had 12 left so that leaves both of them with 12

Hope that helped!
