I need help with this question. Melissa is baking a birthday cake for her best friend and the preparation time is 12 minutes, which is one third of the baking time. Write and solve an equation to find the baking time

Answer:

I put all the steps down. I don't know which one you want. I hope you understand it now.

Explanation:

b = baking time

p = preperation time

p = 1/3b

12 = 1/3b

b = 12*3

b = 36 minutes
