Explanation:

The question posed by Andrea is asking how many bonbons would you have in total if you had three bonbons in one box and then had three boxes with the same amount of bonbons.

To find the total number of bonbons, we need to multiply the number of bonbons in one box by the number of boxes.

Given that there are three bonbons in one box, and you have three boxes, the calculation would be:

3 bonbons/box * 3 boxes = 9 bonbons

Therefore, you would have a total of 9 bonbons altogether.
