Answer:

The total number of pencils is 76 x 3 = 228 pencils

If each teacher receives an equal amount of pencils, we can divide the total number of pencils by the number of teachers to find how many pencils each teacher receives:

228 pencils / 4 teachers = 57 pencils/teacher

Each teacher receives 57 pencils.
