In order to do this, we need to look at the info.
Here is what we know:
Each lizard eats the same amount.
They need to buy 36 crickets.
There are three lizards.
What we need to know:
How many crickets does each lizard eat?
How to solve:
Divide 36 by three.
Math:
36/3 = 12.
Final answer:
Each lizard eats 12 crickets.
