The equation representing the number of Peaches P = 12x

Here, we want to write an equation using the information given in the question

From the question, we are told that a person buys x bags of peaches

In a bag, there are 12 peaches

So in x bags, the number of Peaches that will be present is 12 * x = 12x

To complete the equation, we simply equate this to P

So the equation is;


P\text{ = 12x}
