Answer 2

Answer: 2crayons

Explanation:

3 children share 6crayons equally

Looking at this

We have 3 children

We have 6crayons

How many does each one of them get

Let the each child's crayon represent p

I child to p crayon

3children to 6crayon

Cross multiply

1 ----- p

3 -----6

P=6/3

P=2

So 1 child is entitle to 2crayons

Therefore, each child has 2crayons to themselves.
