Answer: 6 chocolates

Explanation:

Keilantra had 24 chocolates to begin with, and she ate six lots of three. so the first step is 6 x 3 = 18. Now that we know how many chocolates Keilantra ate, we need to figure out how many chocolates she has left. So we take our product (18) and we subtract it from the total (24). So we end up with 24 - 18 = 6.
